Ingredients

• 1 medium green pepper, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
• 4 green onions, sliced
• 3 bacon strips, chopped
• 1 celery rib, chopped
• 1 large tomato, chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 4 tilapia fillets (4 ounces each)
• 4 teaspoons lemon juice

Directions

• In a large skillet, saute the green pepper, onions, bacon and celery until vegetables are tender and bacon is crisp; drain. Add the tomato, salt and pepper; heat through.
• Place each fillet on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 12 in. square). Drizzle fillets with lemon juice. Top with vegetable mixture. Fold foil around fish and seal tightly. Grill, covered, over medium-hot heat for 15-20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. Yield: 4 servings.
