I didn't see that program, but I've been wrapping fish filets for more
than 40 years, usually salmon or farm-raised catfish.

Using foil is great for camping because you can cook them on a grill.
I don't camp anymore, so I use parchment paper or, more recently, rice
paper wrappers for spring or summer rolls. The rice paper works well
if you brown the package slightly in a little oil, then finish in the
oven. You also get to eat the wrapper. <g>

Just lay the piece of fish on the wrapper of choice, sprinkle on a
little white wine and/or olive oil plus whatever other flavoring you
want: some sliced onion, sliced lemon, minced garlic, sprigs of dill,
fennel, rosemary, s&p, etc.

Use pieces of foil or parchment paper that are big enough to fold over
so you can crimp the edges. If you use rice paper, slightly moisten
two sheets for each piece of fish, put the fish on one piece, and
cover with the other one.

I cook them in a 350F oven for just a few minutes, until I can see
liquid bubbling through the parchment or rice paper. Very easy and
very tasty. These are great for company because you can make the
packages ahead of time and cook them at the last minute.
