I made this once as written. I Did like it at 3 Stars. And it is a great base recipe and easy to modify depending on your tastes. I will do over to see, I did do over but I add some dill, why ??. as dill is really good paired with just about any fish. Not better, not worse, just different! You could modify this recipe to any style. So I did. it's a matter of what your taste is. Rip off 4 pieces of parchment to form packets each about 12-inches long. Fold up the foil into an air-tight packet. <br/>Place a piece of parchment in a shallow dish then in the center of the paper stack <br/>add the ingredients. Fold over the top of the parchment then roll the sides in to form a sealed pouch. Repeat with remaining parchment and ingredients. Arrange the pouches on a baking sheet and roast in hot oven. Place the foil packets in the oven and bake. I like to play with my food so I did here.. But I think this dish has a lot of potential, and I'm sure I'll make it again. I also add garlic and black pepper that went into it; it was very flavorful this time around for me. I've added this to my recipe book with my additions. Over all the things you can do here with your recipe, Is up to you. I love it. 5 STARS<br/> - FOR - PAC FALL 2012 - Adoption Center Chefgrpa#695933

Just made this. Thank you, KitchenMistress. It was really, really good! I'm amazed that ALL the family ate every bit and said it should be a regular on the menu! I made it exactly as you posted and wouldn't change a thing. EASY. DELICIOUS.

Like SouperChef, I made this quick dinner with only two filets, which is normally all we eat. We were all left wishing there was seconds. This will be on my monthly rotation. I have yet to try any of KitchenMistress' recipes that I did not love!
