Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 450°F. Tear off sheets of aluminum foil, enough to make a little packet for each fish fillet. Lay a fillet in the center of each sheet, then add some sliced carrots and celery on top. Pour a bit of vermouth and dot with small pats of butter over the fish and veggies. Fold the foil up tightly to seal everything inside. Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and pop them in the oven. Let them bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when you poke it with a fork.

How to serve
Serve this meal straight from the foil pack for a rustic feel or plate it with a side of rice or quinoa. A squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of herbs like parsley or dill add a bright finishing touch.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to keep the fish moist and tender. Avoid freezing as the texture may change.
