Ingredients

• 4 pieces Tilapia fillets
• 1 medium, thinly sliced Zucchini
• 1 medium, thinly sliced Red bell pepper
• 1 cup, halved Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 medium, thinly sliced Red onion
• 3 minced Garlic cloves
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 sliced into thin rounds Lemon
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 sheets, approximately 12x18 inches each Aluminum foil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Lay out the sheets of aluminum foil on a flat surface.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 4

Place one tilapia fillet in the center of each foil sheet.

Step 5

Distribute the zucchini, red bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and red onion evenly among the four packets, arranging them around and over the tilapia fillets.

Step 6

Drizzle the olive oil marinade evenly over each fillet and vegetable mixture.

Step 7

Place 2-3 lemon slices on each tilapia fillet and sprinkle fresh parsley over the top.

Step 8

Seal each packet tightly by folding the foil over the contents, crimping the edges to ensure no steam escapes.

Step 9

Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flaky.

Step 10

Carefully open the packets once done (watch out for hot steam) and serve immediately, either on the plate directly or transferred to a dish.
