Mahi Mahi in a Pouch

Ingredients
3 mahi mahi fillets                  Pepper
2 stalks of celery                    Sugar
1 red pepper                          Garlic
Mushrooms                           Olive oil
1/2 yellow onion
6 stalks of green onions
3-4 slices of ginger
Balsamic vinegar
Soy sauce
Salt

This is the best way I found to make mahi mahi, which is a more dense kind of fish.
                                                           
To cook: 
1. Marinate mahi-mahi with salt, sugar, soy sauce, and 3 drops of balsamic vinegar, set aside.
2. Slice celery, red pepper, mushrooms, yellow onions, green onions and ginger. Mince garlic.
3. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
4. Cut a large sheet of parchment paper and place on a cookie sheet.  Put vegetables on parchment paper. Add salt, pepper, and minced garlic to vegetables, mix well.  Splash olive oil on veggies.
5. Put mahi mahi on top of the vegetables. Place ginger on the fish,  and add green onions on top of the ginger and fish. Splash olive oil on top.
6. Put one more piece of parchment paper on top of everything and close it up by folding in sides.

7. Put pouch on cookie sheet and bake in oven for 20 minutes.

Note: The veggies turned out to be more al dente and crunchy.  For softer veggies, I would pre-steam them first next time.
