Ingredients

1-1/2 cups cooked rice
1/3 cup chopped green onions
1/3 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil
2 tilapia fillets (6 ounces each)
1 cup fresh snow peas
1/3 to 1/2 cup Thai peanut sauce

Directions

Prepare grill for indirect heat. Combine the rice, onions, red pepper and basil; place on a greased double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 15 in. square). Top with the tilapia, snow peas and peanut sauce. Fold foil around mixture and seal tightly.
Grill, covered, over indirect medium-hot heat for 8-10 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. Yield: 2 servings.
