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.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

aluminum foil (four 12 X 15 inch pieces) or cooking parchment paper (four 12 X 15 inch pieces)
4 skinless tilapia fillets (about 1 1/4 lb. total)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 1/4 teaspoons finely minced garlic
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
2/3 cup chopped tomato
4 teaspoons chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons dry white wine or 2 tablespoons vermouth
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 Fahrenheit.
  • Lay the pieces of foil on a work surface and place one fillet crosswise in the center of each piece (if space is limited, do one at a time). Sprinkle the fillets on both sides with salt and pepper and place the darker, smoother side of the fillet against the foil (that would be the side the skin was on).
  • In a medium-size bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients. Divide the mixture evenly over the fillets. Seal the packets, making sure to leave some space inside them, by folding the long ends together first, then by folding the sides together, and by turning the side folds upwards to reduce the risk of leakage.
  • Put the packets on a baking tray and bake them for 15 minutes. Remove the tray from the oven and LET THE PACKETS SIT 5 MINUTES LONGER to finish cooking.
  • To serve the fish, carefully open each packet and, with a long spatula, lift the fillets with their topping off the foil, and place them on individual plates. You could also just let each diner open their own packet, which is especially effective if parchment is used.

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.
