Ginger cod in a packet

I wanted to take a break from all the red meats I have been cooking in the magical Instant Pot, so I picked up some frsh cod filets from the store. However, the IP has spoiled me, and I no longer enjoy standing in front of the stove cooking things. “En Papillote” recipes to the rescue! Here’s a soy ginger cod recipe, because why settle for butter & garlic when you can go soy ginger?!

Cod filets with marinade & orange slices, ready to be baked

Fresh fire roasted corn for a side
