White Fish Foil Packs

On hot summer days, there is nothing better than turning on a grill outside. The very thought of cooking over a hot stove or putting something in the oven seems so wrong during the summer months. Fish is a  delicious and light summer meal that can easily be prepared on the grill. Full of wonderful flavor, this is a quick and healthy way to prepare your fish with minimal effort.

As well as being an excellent source of protein, white fish types are also rich in vitamins and minerals. As with many fish, meats and vegetables out there, the health benefits of them
all depend on the way you prepare it! Here is a recipe that tastes delicious and keeps it healthy!

For a full meal, try making a zucchini and yellow squash foil packet to cook alongside of your fish! Simply slice up your zucchini and squash, add a little olive oil and seasonings of your choice, wrap in foil and put on the grill next to your fish packets. Note that the squash may take a little longer than the fish so you may want to put it on first.

White Fish Foil Packs

4-5 pieces of white fish of your preference
Olive oil
1 lemon, sliced
Fresh rosemary sprigs
Salt and pepper
Aluminum foil


1. Tear off pieces of foil big enough to make a packet for each piece of fish. Brush the fish lightly with olive oil. Lay on foil, season with salt and pepper to taste. Lay a slice of lemon and 1-2 sprigs of rosemary on each piece of fish. Fold foil over fish to make a packet.

2. Place on heated grill over low heat for 10 – 15 minutes or until fish is opaque and flaking apart. Dispose of lemon and rosemary and enjoy!
