Instructions
Preheat oven to 400. Take two large squares of parchment paper and cut into a heart shape.
On one side of heart, place 1 cup spinach, 1 chopped stalk bok choy, half of garlic and shallot. Sprinkle on salt and pepper and mix a little with your fingers. Place half of lemon slices over vegetables.
Place one piece of fish on top of lemon and spread a half tablespoon basil pesto over fish.
Fold parchment over and beginning at the top curve of the heart, tightly fold small creases, overlapping each one with the next one. At the point of the heart, fold in and up, overlapping the previous fold so that a tight seal is formed. Use a paper clip to hold it together.
Repeat with the other piece of parchment, vegetables, and fish. Place packets on baking sheet.
Bake until packets have puffed and fish is cooked through, 18-20 minutes. Transfer packets to plates and either serve in the packet or slide the fish and vegetables onto plates.
