Yield: 4 serving(s)
Ingredients: 8 new potatoes, peeled or not (about 1 1/2 lb/675 g); 2 leeks, white and pale green parts only, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise; 2 garlic cloves, chopped; 1/2 cup (115 g) butter; 1/2 cup (125 ml) dry white wine; 1/4 cup (60 ml) 35% cream; 1 1/2 lb (675 g) halibut, cod or black cod fillets without skin, cut into 4 pieces; 4 green onions, thinly sliced

Ingredients

- 8 new potatoes, peeled or not (about 1 1/2 lb/675 g)
- 2 leeks, white and pale green parts only, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1/2 cup (115 g) butter
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) dry white wine
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) 35% cream
- 1 1/2 lb (675 g) halibut, cod or black cod fillets without skin, cut into 4 pieces
- 4 green onions, thinly sliced

Preparation

- Place the potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water. Season with salt. Bring to a boil. Simmer until the potatoes are tender. Drain and let cool. On a work surface, cut the potatoes into slices ½ inch (1 cm) thick. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, in another pot over medium-high heat, soften the leeks and garlic in 2 tbsp of the butter. Deglaze with the wine and let reduce by half. Stir in the cream. Remove from the heat. Stir in ⅓ cup (75 g) of the butter. Season with salt and pepper.
- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
- On a work surface, lay out 4 large rectangles of parchment paper, each 18 x 15 inches (46 x 38 cm).
- On the upper third of each paper, spread out the remaining butter. Top with the potato slices. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with the leek mixture and top with a piece of fish. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the green onions.
- Fold the parchment paper in half to create a triangle. Starting from the left side of the triangle, fold the edges of the paper to tightly seal into packets (papillotes) in the shape of a halfmoon. Place the packets side-by-side on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until the fish is cooked through, depending on the thickness of the fish. Serve immediately.
