Time 4h55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon basil pesto
7 sheets parchment paper
2 medium red potatoes, cut into thin strips
1 yellow squash, cut into thin strips
1 yellow onion, diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 tilapia fillets
1 pinch sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 tablespoons white wine

Steps:

  • Mix butter and basil together until evenly combined. Spoon onto a piece of parchment paper and roll up tightly into a log. Refrigerate until firm, at least 4 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Mix potatoes, squash, and onion together.
  • Cut each parchment paper sheet into a 15-inch square. Fold in half and trim edges to make a semi-circle. Unfold and place a handful of mixed vegetables on one half of each circle.
  • Drizzle 1 teaspoon olive oil over each tilapia fillet; season with salt and pepper. Position fillets over the vegetables and season with more salt and pepper. Place a couple slices of pesto butter and 1 tablespoon white wine over each fillet.
  • Fold empty half of parchment paper over the tilapia and vegetables, like a quesadilla. Twist the edges of the semi-circle to seal. Transfer to a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tilapia flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Open parchment paper carefully and serve.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons grated ginger
1 clove garlic, mashed
Zest of 1 lemon
Zest and juice of 1 orange
Four 4-ounce tilapia fillets
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups fresh baby spinach, for serving
Grilled Summer Relish, recipe follows
2 scallions, white and pale green parts only
1 ear corn
1 orange bell pepper
1 yellow squash, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from about 1 lemon)
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to medium heat. Fold four sheets of foil in half crosswise to crease, and then unfold.
  • Combine the oil, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, lemon zest, orange zest and orange juice in a small bowl. Mix well to combine.
  • Place 1 fillet on one side of the crease on each sheet of foil and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Divide the oil mixture equally among the fillets.
  • Working with 1 foil sheet at a time, fold the foil over the fillet and tightly crimp the edges of the foil to close the packets to create a papillote. Place each papillote on the grill and close the lid of the grill. Grill until the papillotes are fully puffed, about 12 minutes.
  • Carefully cut the foil to open and serve the fillets on the spinach and top with the Grilled Summer Relish.
  • Prepare the grill to medium heat. Brush the scallions, corn, bell pepper and squash on both sides with the oil. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Grill the vegetables until slightly charred and just tender, turning often, about 5 minutes for the scallions, 8 minutes for the squash and pepper and 10 minutes for the corn. Transfer the vegetables to a cutting board and cut into 1/4-inch pieces. Cut the corn from the cob directly into a bowl and mix in the scallions, peppers and squash.
  • Meanwhile whisk the lemon juice, oil, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Add the oil mixture to the bowl of vegetables; toss to coat.

TILAPIA EN PAPILLOTE

This was supposed to be made originally with shrimp, but I didn't have any. So, I left out the shrimp and used Tilapia for the fish. The vegies I chose were broccoli and cauliflower. I also made some roasted potatoes for a side dish.
