Ingredients

4 servings
  • 2 cups diced seedless watermelon (1/4 inch)
  • 1/4 small red onion (finely diced)
  • 2 tbsp roughly chopped fresh cilantro
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1/2 jalapeno pepper (seeded and finely diced)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 boneless (skinless fish filets, 6 oz each (striped bass, salmon, cod or halibut))
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 tsp ground oregano
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 lime (juiced)
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil
  • 4 pieces Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil (12 x 18 inches)
  • lime wedges (for serving)

Steps

  1. Combine salsa ingredients and refrigerate at least 20 minutes until ready to cook the fish.

  2. Mix the dried spices and seasoning together in a small bowl, squeeze the lime on the fish then rub the seasoning onto fish.

  3. Lay out 4 large sheets of Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil 18 x 12. Put the fish in the center of each and drizzle with olive oil.

  4. Bring the short ends of the foil together and fold twice to seal; fold in the sides to seal, leaving room for steam.

  5. Cook the packets.

  6. Preheat a grill to medium high or light a campfire and put a cooking grate in place. Grill the foil packets until the fish is just cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.

  7. Let the packets sit 5 minutes, then carefully open and top with salsa and serve with lime wedges.

  8. Preheat the oven to 450F.

  9. Put the foil packets on a baking sheet; bake until the fish is just cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.

  10. Let the packets sit 5 minutes, then carefully open and top with salsa and serve with lime wedges.
