Dilled Fish and Vegetable Packet Recipe

Prep: 15 min. Bake: 20 min.

Yield: 4 Servings

15 20 35

Ingredients

4 tilapia fillets (4 ounces each)
Refrigerated butter-flavored spray
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon pepper, divided
2 cups fresh snow peas
2 cups fresh baby carrots, halved lengthwise
1 green onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup white wine or reduced-sodium chicken broth

Directions

Place an 18-in. x 12-in. piece of heavy-duty foil on a large baking sheet. Arrange fillets in a single layer on foil; spritz with butter-flavored spray. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
Combine the peas, carrots, onion, dill, garlic and remaining salt and pepper; spoon over fish. Drizzle with wine. Top with a second large piece of foil. Bring edges of foil pieces together; crimp to seal, forming a large packet.
Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork and vegetables are crisp-tender. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. Yield: 4 servings.
