Introduction

This is my favorite way to eat fish! The fish is baked in it's own packets, so it always produces a flavorful, moist, delicious piece of fish. If you don't have Tilapia you could use any white fish.

Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and check fish for doneness by flaking with fork if it flakes easily it's done.
