For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a splash of dry white wine or lemon juice to the packet before sealing it. Feel free to substitute your favorite vegetables based on seasonal availability. Zucchini, asparagus, or mushrooms would be excellent additions. Ensure the foil packet is tightly sealed to effectively steam the fish and vegetables, resulting in moist and flavorful results. You can use two layers of foil for extra security. Adjust cooking time slightly depending on the thickness of the tilapia fillets.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a large sheet of aluminum foil, allowing enough overhang to fully enclose the fish and vegetables. Drizzle the foil lightly with olive oil. (5 minutes)
02
StepArrange the tilapia fillets in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Scatter the celery, carrots, bell pepper, and red onion evenly over the top of the fillets. Season generously with Greek seasoning, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. (5 minutes)
03
StepCarefully fold the edges of the aluminum foil together to create a sealed packet, ensuring no steam can escape during cooking. (2 minutes)
04
StepBake in the preheated oven until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. The vegetables should be tender-crisp. (20 minutes)
05
StepCarefully open the foil packet (be cautious of escaping steam). Serve immediately, garnished with fresh lemon wedges, if desired.
