Grilled Lemon Pepper Tilapia

I have been craving fish lately, so it was to my surprise to find tilapia on sale this week at Sam's Club!  My husband loves to grill so what better mixture than my fish and his grill!  Check out this awesome recipe! Our entire family enjoyed every last bite of it!

Ingredients:

  • 6 boneless/skinless tilapia fillets
  • 1 fresh lemon thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • Fresh cracked pepper
  • 1 tsp freshly minced garlic 
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp freshly chopped parsley
  • Sea salt 
Directions:

I made open top foil boxes to cook our fish on the grill, gaining the grill flavor without losing half our fish from sticking to the grill. 

Place a thin layer of lemon slices on the bottom of the foil, top with the tilapia fillets. Mix the olive oil and fresh lemon juice together. Drizzle the tilapia fillets with the olive oil/ lemon mixture, sprinkle with cracked pepper (visibly peppered), sea salt, parsley, and garlic. Top with a layer of thinly sliced lemons, cook until flaky to fork. Time will vary by grill, may also be cooked in the oven!

I served the tilapia to my family with a side of roasted asparagus and quinoa. Would be great along side a salad as well!
