    I dug out some tilapia fillets from the depths of the freezer. Thankfully they were vacuum packed and in another freezer bag, so they almost as good as fresh!

    I wanted to grill the fillets straight on the grill, but they were too thin…so I “foil grill” it is. And we’ll round out the meal with Buttery Succotash with Dill and Grilled Garlic Bread.

      Being from New Zealand I’m not familiar with this type of fish. Is it mild or strong flavoured?

      Coming from your spotlight on BlogSpark. Not a big fish family, but you have some other ideas that I’m going to be trying.

      I just don’t understand when “you” grill in this recipe why you don’t allow it to get the full compliments of the grilling by encasing it in foil! It just boggles my mind. You might as well just .bake it in an oven
