In reply to Lei. So I would suggest temperature probably the same, but you will want to reduce cooking time. The exact time depends on the thickness of the fish and also density (so varies form one fish to another). A ballpark time for fillets is 20 minutes but can be less if thin/not too dense, or occasionally more.

How do I adjust the temperature and time if I want to use filets instead of a whole fish?

Wanted to say thank you for taking me home to this childhood dish. I have Chinese and Filipino influences growing up and your recipe just hit the spot. I am an amateur in the kitchen and so the simple process and the pictures helped a lot! Great job!!

Such an easy way to prepare fish. I love that I don't need any fancy cookware or utensils!

We do all of hobo style meals like this. I never tried it with fish. I love this idea and the whole meal in one pan is so super easy! Great for picnics too!

In reply to Karen. So true, parchment can be pretty fiddly! The foil is definitely easier and works just fine.

In reply to Wendy Klik. They do go in and out - I can sometimes get them to have other fish, but it varies. At least they'll take shrimp, lobster and squid as well and I'm hopeful they'll grow in to more! But at least we can enjoy this ourselves in the meantime :)

This sounds delicious! Foil is so much easier than parchment. I usually have to get the stapler out because I can't get it to stay closed!

This sounds like my kind of meal. I had to laugh that your kids only like salmon. Same with my 4 yo granddaugher. I tried to pass off the cod this month as salmon. She took a bite and said "this doesn't taste like salmon, it's not even pink" LOL
