- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced lengthwise
- 4 6-ounce halibut fillets
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 scallions (white and green parts), thinly sliced on a diagonal

- 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 1/2 teaspoons rice vinegar

- Divide the bok choy and bell pepper evenly among the squares, place the halibut fillets on top, sprinkle with black pepper, and top with the scallions and zest.

- Transfer each packet to a plate. Serve with a knife to slit open the package. Be careful of the steam that will escape.
