4 new red potatoes, sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 lb. bay scallops
1 cup julienned asparagus
1 cup seeded and diced red and yellow bell pepper
2 scallions, thinly sliced
2 tsp. minced fresh ginger
1 tsp. grated lemon zest
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat oven to 350°F. Cut 2 pieces of parchment paper or aluminum foil, each about 16x24-inches; then fold crosswise in half so each piece measures 12x16-inches.

Open paper hearts and place potatoes in center of each heart next to fold. Combine remaining ingredients in mixing bowl and spoon over potatoes. Fold paper over and double fold edges to seal tightly. Place packets on baking sheet and bake 30 minutes. Transfer packets to plates and open.

The combination of flavors was surprisingly subtle and pleasant. I julienned all the vegetables to make it prettier. I also used ocean scallops because I couldn't find wild bay scallops. I liked being able to prepare the papillotes ahead of my party. I could enjoy my company with salad while baking the main dish. The presentation was also exciting as each guest opened his or her papillote. If you're going to prepare a new dish for company, this would be the one to do. February 20, 2012
