Tilapia fish and Vegetables grilled in aluminum foil

This recipe is great on a warm summer night, you can also prepare ahead for camping or tailgating.
4 Tilapia fish filets
4 carrots
1 medium onion
2 broccoli bunches
2 zucchinis
(You can add whatever vegetables you like, potatoes, peppers, cauliflower…this is what I had in my fridge)
Minced garlic
Butter
Salt & pepper
Aluminum foil
Olive oil

Wash, rinse and chop all vegetables, set aside. Cut a good size piece of aluminum foil, add a little bit of olive oil in the center, make a layer with the carrots (and potatoes if using, you want your hardest vegetables on the bottom) and place the fish on top of the carrots; season to taste. Add the onion, broccoli, zucchini, minced garlic and a small amount of butter.


Cut another piece of aluminum foil and place on top, you are now going to fold over both the top and bottom pieces of foil on all four sides, creating a pocket. Make sure it is tightly sealed. Repeat with the remaining fish and vegetables to make 4 packets.

Heat your grill on high, raduceheat to medium and place the foil packets on the grill. (You can also cook at 375 degrees in your oven) Cook for 15-20 minutes and remove from heat. Place on a plate in the foil, cut open (be careful as there is a lot of hot steam). Enjoy!
