make it
Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine all topping ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Place a fillet on each banana leaf and divide topping evenly among them, spreading it over the top. Fold each banana leaf over to form a packet around each fillet and seal the edge of each packet with a small piece of aluminum foil, crimping it tightly.
Place on a baking sheet and bake 25 to 30 minutes.
