Grilled Tilapia With Tomato Olive Tapenade Food

GRILLED HERBED TILAPIA IN FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cut a piece of heavy duty aluminum foil large enough to make an airy foil pouch to hold tilapia fillets.
• Place fillets on top of the foil and season with dill, salt, and pepper. Place chives on top of fillets, followed by butter. Seal up pouches loosely.
• Cook fillets on the preheated grill until they flake easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.

TILAPIA WITH GREEN TOMATO TAPENADE

Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in diced tomatoes, green tomatoes, capers, basil, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until flavors combine, about 5 minutes.
• Season tilapia fillets with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add tilapia fillets; cook until flesh flakes easily with a fork, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving platter.
• Pour lemon juice into the skillet; swirl to pick up browned bits off the bottom of the skillet, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pour over fillets.
• Spoon tomato mixture over fillets before serving.

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In a small bowl, stir together the sun-dried tomatoes, olives and capers. Set aside.
• Place the tilapia fillets side by side in a baking dish. Drizzle with oil and lemon juice.
• Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the fish flakes with a fork. Check after 10 minutes, so as not to overcook, or the fish may be dry. When fish is done, top with the tomato mixture, and serve.
