The Best Fish Ever!


This is my favorite way to eat tilapia, or any fish for that matter.
It comes out SOOO tender, flaky and juicy!


It is so fast and simple.
Ready for my secret? Ok, look at the picture below.



I use 2 thicknesses of foil, crinkle up the edges to keep the juices from dripping into the grill.
I spray them with baking spray, place the thawed fillets on, sprinkle them with MCCormicks Salmon Seasoning, then put lemon slices and a few pats of butter on them. I loosely cover them with another piece of foil, and grill them for 7-10 minutes, without flipping.
That's it.
The most delicious fish you will ever eat.

Enjoy!
