Best 8 Dilapidated Tilapia Packets Recipes

TILAPIA FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lay 4 sheets of aluminum foil on a work surface.
• Place 1 tilapia fillet in the center of each piece of foil, and top with 1/2 tablespoon butter. Sprinkle each fillet with dill, garlic powder, pepper, and salt. Fold foil over top and roll up edges to create a sealed packet. Place packets on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes.

DILAPIDATED TILAPIA PACKETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Clean the scallions, cutting off most of the green. Cut them in two pieces, and slice each piece in half lengthwise.
• On each sheet of foil, place 1/2 teaspoon butter. Drape 1/4 of the tilapia filets over the butter, add salt and pepper to taste and one quarter of the slice scallions. Add about 1/2 teaspoon of water to each packet, sprinkle 1/4 of the herbes de provence on top of each, then fold the foil up and over the filet until you have a loose packet, making sure there's some room inside to steam. Seal all edges. Repeat for the other filets.
• Put the packets on a baking sheet. If you've folded them correctly they should not leak while they're in the oven. If you're in doubt, put them in a large oven dish instead. Put into oven for 20-25 minutes.
• It's very difficult to overcook fish this way, so if you're leery of the fish being undercooked, leave it in slightly longer.
• Open each packet at the table -- you don't want to miss that aroma!

GRILLED TILAPIA IN FOIL (FISH FOIL PACKETS)

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat, about 375-425 degrees F.
• Cut 4 large squares of aluminum foil, place on a baking sheet and fold up edges to form pouch.
• Place fish on the bottom of foil. Drizzle with olive oil (about 1 teaspoon per fillet) and sprinkle with garlic powder and salt.
• Divide corn, peppers, onion, and grape tomatoes over the top of the fish. Drizzle with remaining olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Fold sides of aluminum foil together, to create a tent and roll edges together, ensuring there are no gaps as you fold the sides together.
• Place foil packets directly over heat and cook for 10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily. Set fish aside. If you aren't eating the meal immediately, be sure to open up the packets to vent or they will continue cooking.
• Meanwhile, brush bread with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with salt. Grill bread for about 2-4 minutes per side, or until lightly charred.

TILAPIA FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Whisk together the white wine, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
• 2. Place each tilapia fillet on a separate 14-by-12-inch piece of nonstick foil. Drizzle one-quarter of the white wine mixture over each fish fillet and top with one-quarter of the tomatoes, capers and thyme. Fold the foil up over each piece of fish and seal to create a packet. Put the packets on a sheet pan and bake until the fish becomes fragrant, 20 to 25 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets; let cool for 3 minutes. Open the packets, sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon salt evenly over the fillets and serve.
