  • Lay sheet of aluminum foil on flat surface. Place parchment paper on top. Trim parchment paper as needed. Fold parchment paper to form a bowl. Spoon 2 tbsp of marinate mixture onto paper. Place fish in middle of paper. Sprinkle scallions, garlic slices and green peppers around the fish. Arrange slices of yellow peppers on top of the fish. Top with parsley.
