Orange Tilapia in Parchment
Yield:4 servings
Prep:15 min
Cook:15 min
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 4 teaspoons grated orange zest
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 4 tilapia fillets (6 ounces each)
- 1/2 cup julienned carrot
- 1/2 cup julienned zucchini
Directions
-
1Preheat oven to 450°. In a small bowl, combine first 5 ingredients; set aside. Cut parchment or heavy-duty foil into four 18x12-in. lengths; place a fish fillet on each. Top with carrot and zucchini; drizzle with orange juice mixture.
-
2Fold parchment over fish. Working from bottom inside corner, fold up about 3/4 in. of the paper and crimp both layers to seal. Repeat, folding edges up and crimping, until a half-moon-shaped packet is formed. Repeat for remaining packets. Place on baking sheets.
-
3Bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Open packets carefully to allow steam to escape.
