👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place each piece of cod fillet on one of the puff pastry rectangles and season well with salt and pepper.

Sprinkle each fish fillet with 1/2 the feta cheese, the roasted red peppers, and the thyme leaves.

Fold pastry over the fish and pinch edges together to make a pouch.

Brush top with beaten egg and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven until puff pastry is golden brown and fish flakes easily with a fork, about 30 minutes.
