Tilapia & Summer Vegetable Packets

From EatingWell: July/August 2007, EatingWell for a Healthy Heart Cookbook (2008)

Wrapping vegetables and fish in a foil packet for grilling or baking is a foolproof way to get moist, tender results. Tilapia and summer vegetables pair with olives and capers for a Mediterranean flair.

READER'S COMMENT:

"We enjoyed this recipe. It was really flavorful. I left out the capers and olives. I also changed the vegetables a little and just used ones I had on hand. "

This is one of my favorite dishes! And that's saying something because I'm not a big fish fan. Even my 6 yr, 3 yr and 2 yr olds love it. I've made this several times now and each time it has been delicious. I serve this over brown rice with the juices from the packet and a salad. When I made this last night I didn't have summer squash or fresh green beans, so I used edamame and frozen green beans instead and I liked it even more than the original recipe.

We really loved this dish. I have no clue what the other reviewers are talking about when they say this was bland. The mixture of the olives, oregano, oil and lemon juice made for a very flavourful, moist and delicious meal. We used salmon instead of tilapia, and as another reviewer mentioned this does make it take a little longer to cook, for us it took about 17 minutes on the grill.

Will definitely make this again!

I thought this was very flavorful and so easy! I added asparagus to the mix.

I used salmon rather than Tilapia. Also marinated the fish in lemon juice for about 15 minutes prior to assembly. And, I used dried Italian seasoning rather than fresh oregano. Cooked for 30 minutes, probably because the salmon is thicker than Tilapia. It turned out excellent. Very easy and satisfying.
