INSTRUCTIONS
Trim each sheet of parchment or foil to make a 12-inch square. Fold
each square in half to form a triangle. Open each triangle to lay
flat.
Combine tomatoes, wine (if using), oil, basil, thyme, garlic, salt,
and saffron in a large bowl. Add sbrirnp, scallops, zucchini, and
green onion; toss to coat. Spoon mixture onto the center of one side
of each triangle.
Fold the paper over the mixture. Fold each of the open sides over 1/2
inch, then fold over again 1/2 inch. Place packages on baking sheet.
Bake in a 400° oven for 10 to 12 minutes or till shrimp and scallops
are opaque. Serve with rice, couscous, or Italian bread.
Judging Doneness "en Papillote". Cooking in parchment is mostly a
no-look method, but for accurately judging doneness, a discreet peek
is in order. To check the doneness of fish or seafood, cut a small
'x' in the top of the parchment. Insert a fork and gently press down
on the food. The fish should just begin to flake easily. If cooking
meat or poultry, insert a sharp knife through the "x" into the
thickest portion of the food. Poultry and pork should no longer be
pink.
