Making a foil packet allows the fish to gently steam, and seals in the flavors of ginger, soy sauce, and scallions.
Ingredients
- 4 pieces skinless tilapia, about 5 oz (150 g) each
- 1 head broccoli, cut into florets
- 4 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 4 tbsp melted coconut oil
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds
- 1 in (2.5 cm) piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced
- 4 scallions, chopped
- 4 red chili peppers, such as cayenne, thinly sliced (optional)
- 2 cups cooked brown basmati rice
How to Make It
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut a sheet of aluminum foil into 4 pieces, each about 12 x 12 in (30 x 30 cm).
- To assemble the packets, place 1 piece of fish in the center of each foil square. Arrange an equal portion of broccoli florets next to each piece of fish, and drizzle each serving with with 1 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp coconut oil. Top each serving with sesame seeds, minced ginger, scallions, and sliced chilies (if using).
- Create a packet by folding the foil around the fish and broccoli, crimping the edges to seal tightly. Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
- To assemble the meals, place ½ cup cooked rice in each of 4 meal prep containers. To each container, add the fish and vegetables from one foil packet.
