Fish fillet baked this way makes a very easy and healthy dinner when accompanied by any vegetable of your choice. Any fish fillet can be baked this way especially Tilapia or Flounder. I made this with Tilapia fillet. Chopped cherry tomatoes mixed with garlic, red onions, green chilly, cilantro salt and olive oil are placed on top of the fillet and baked in a foil packet. The packets should be made air tight and the steam cooks the fish.
