Steamed Tilapia are a light and refreshing meal! Fresh tilapia fillets are seasoned with lemon, dill, garlic powder, and other spices, steamed in the oven (or on the grill!) in a tin foil packet.
Ingredients
- 4 tilapia filets or any fish you prefer
- 1 tablespoon dill
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- pinch of white pepper
- 4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice about half a lemon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Place 4 sheets of tin foil, slightly larger than squares, on a clean work surface.
- In a small bowl, mix together the dill, lemon zest, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika and white pepper.
- Place one tilapia filet in the center of each piece of tin foil, and drizzle one teaspoon of lemon juice over each piece of fish.
- Evenly sprinkle the seasoning mixture on top of the filets.
- Fold the sides of the tin foil up so that they come together and bend over to seal. Fold up each end, making sure no steam will escape while in the oven.
- Bake for 30 minutes.

You can add salt to taste, if desired.
