Quick Tilapia with White Wine and Tomatoes
  1. 1

    Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Lay the tilapia fillets side by side on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Season each with salt and pepper. Put one tablespoon of butter on top of each fillet, then sprinkle with the garlic, basil, and tomato. Pour the wine over everything. Fold the foil up around the fish and seal it into a packet. Set the packet on a cookie sheet to make it easier to move to and from the grill.

  3. 3

    Place the foil packet on the preheated grill and cook for 15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Open the packet carefully to avoid steam burns, and serve.
