8 fresh tilapia filets
4 tsp Minced Garlic
2 lemons
4 teaspoons of capers (depending on how many fish filets you are cooking)
8 sundried tomatoes julienned
orange pepper seasoning to taste.
four teaspoons of butter or margarine. You can use olive oil if you are watching your fat intake.
four sheets of aluminum foil (enough to wrap your fish in)

Steps:

Place half of one square of butter or a half teaspoon of olive oil in aluminum foil. Place tilapia on top of that. Cut one lemon in half. Squeeze tilapia with some of the juice. Enough to cover fish. Sprinkle with orange pepper to coat. Not a heavy coating just lightly. Add 1 teaspoon minced garlic spread all over fish. Then place julienned tomatoes on top and then slice the other lemon thinly and place those slices on top of the fish. Place capers on top of the lemon slices and add a little more butter or olive oil to make sure fish doesn't stick to foil. Wrap aluminum foil around the fish and place on hot grill 2 minutes a side. Tilapia cooks quickly because it is so light Unwrap foil and place on a dish with rice pilaf and a steamed veg and you have a light flavorful dish the whole family will love
