We have the recipe for chef Erling Jensen’s snapper en papillote.
It’s been almost 30 years since he has offered it on a restaurant menu.
“It was a popular dish back in the 1990s,” Jensen said. “It made such a great presentation when opened at the table.”
En papillote is a French cooking technique that translates to “in paper.” Basically, fish is cooked inside a packet made from parchment paper.
