Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Prepare the Foil: Lay out four sheets of aluminum foil on a clean work surface. Each sheet should be large enough to fully enclose a tilapia fillet.

03

Step

Assemble the Packets: Place one tilapia fillet in the center of each foil sheet. Top each fillet with 1/2 tablespoon of butter pats, followed by a sprinkle of fresh dill, garlic powder, black pepper, and sea salt.

04

Step

Seal the Packets: Carefully fold the foil over the tilapia, creating a sealed packet. Roll up the edges tightly to ensure no steam escapes during baking.

05

Step

Bake: Arrange the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, approximately 20 minutes.

06

Step

Serve: Carefully open the foil packets (beware of hot steam!) and serve immediately. Garnish with extra fresh dill, if desired.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a splash of white wine to each packet before sealing.
Feel free to customize the herbs and spices to your liking. Thyme, parsley, or a pinch of red pepper flakes would also be delightful additions.
Ensure the foil packets are tightly sealed to lock in moisture and create a steamy cooking environment.
