nullAfter all the indulgence of the Thanksgiving holiday, with more to come in the next 5 weeks, a light, clean meal can work wonders for how we feel. Steaming is an ancient cooking method that concentrates flavors with little or no added fat. The result is palate pleasing and waistline friendly.

The French developed steaming in paper (en papillote), and if you're not familiar with the technique, see How to Steam Fish in Parchment.
Try Steamed Ginger Fish for Asian style, or Fish in Parchment with Dill and Fennel for a European approach. Either way, you'll have a light, clean delicious dinner in less than 20 minutes.
