Nothing could be easier—or more elegant—than baking fish fillets in parchment packets. This snapper recipe takes just 10 minutes of prep time and is ready in 25 minutes, making it a fresh option to break up your traditional weeknight dinner routine. Snapper is a versatile fish with a hint of sweetness. If the snapper fillets have the skin on them, ask the fishmonger behind the counter to skin them for you. We’ve called for black olives in this recipe, but given the other Mediterranean flavors, you could also use kalamata or Castelvetrano olives instead. Look for parchment paper near the aluminum foil and wax paper at your market.
