Grilled Chili-Lime Tilapia
31
A wonderful blend of flavors! And even better, you can have this on the table in less than 20 minutes!
4
1 pound of Tilapia Filet's (I used slightly over 1 lb; or 4 fillets)
1 lime - sliced in half
1 Tbsp. chili powder
1 Tbsp. garlic powder
Coarse sea salt & ground pepper
2 cups of Fresh Spinach
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallot
Olive oil
1 lime - sliced in half
1 Tbsp. chili powder
1 Tbsp. garlic powder
Coarse sea salt & ground pepper
2 cups of Fresh Spinach
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallot
Olive oil
Rinse to clean fish and pat fish dry. Season each side with course sea salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, mix together juice from 1/2 of the lime, chili powder, & garlic powder.
Spread thin layer evenly on both sides of tilapia fillets.
Place 1/2 cup of spinach leaves on 4 large rectangles of foil (one rectangle for each fillet).
Add a small amount (1/4 tsp) of olive oil across bed of spinach.
Place seasoned Tilapia fillets over spinach.
Sprinkle on shallots and season with a little extra sea salt.
Top with a squirt of juice from remaining lime (lime slice optional also).
Fold the foil up, creating an airtight pouch.
Grill each pouch over indirect high heat for 5 minutes, flipping once during cooking time.
(If you don't have a grill, you can also cook pouches at 350 degrees in the oven for about 15-20 minutes).
