STEAMED TILAPIA IN WINE SAUCE

Steamed Tilapia in Wine Sauce image

I developed this recipe while working at a local winery. Fast and easy to prepare, it became an instant classic at my house. I use a lively dry pear wine in the sauce and recommend avoiding those that are sweet or semi-sweet. -Tenneille Brewer, Fayette, New York

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

4 tilapia fillets (6 ounces each)
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon pepper, divided
1 pound fresh sugar snap peas, trimmed
2 tablespoons minced chives
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup dry white wine
Hot cooked wild rice

Steps:

Sprinkle fillets with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place each fillet on 1 side of a piece of heavy-duty foil (about 18x12-in. rectangle). Top with peas, chives and butter. Drizzle with wine; sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper. Fold foil around fish and peas, sealing tightly., Grill, covered, over medium heat 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. Spoon juices over fish and peas. If desired, top with additional minced chives. Serve with rice.
