Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lay out 4 sheets of parchment paper or aluminum foil, each large enough to fold over and seal the tilapia and vegetables into pouches.
Place one tilapia fillet in the center of each sheet.
Divide the peach slices, yellow bell pepper slices, and red onion slices evenly among the 4 pouches, placing them on top of and around the tilapia.
Top each fillet with a slice or two of lemon.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle an equal amount of the olive oil mixture over each fillet and its toppings.
Fold the parchment paper or foil over the fish and vegetables to create a secure pouch, ensuring all edges are tightly sealed to trap steam.
Place the sealed pouches on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the tilapia is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Carefully open the pouches—watching out for steam—and serve directly in the parchment/foil or transfer to plates.
