DILAPIDATED TILAPIA PACKETS
Very easy, quick and delicious creation of my husband's which works just as well on the grill as in the oven. It's really not dilapidated at all, he just thought it just had that flow-off-the-tongue sound. Plus he's really warped... like his lunatic wife.

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!

- Open packets carefully. Sprinkle salt and pepper over top; serve with lemon wedges.
