Directions

1 Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Cut four 18x12-inch pieces of heavy-duty foil; spray with cooking spray. Cut fish into 4 serving pieces if necessary. Place 1 fish piece on each foil piece. Sprinkle fish with 1 teaspoon of the basil, 1/2 teaspoon of the lemon pepper and 1/2 teaspoon of the seasoned salt.
2 Arrange zucchini and bell pepper over fish. Sprinkle with remaining basil, lemon pepper and seasoned salt. Drizzle with oil. Fold foil over fish and vegetables so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again. Allow space on sides for circulation and expansion.
3 Cover and grill packets over medium heat 15 to 20 minutes or until fish flakes with fork and vegetables are tender. Place packets on plates. Cut large X across top of each packet; fold back foil.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Try making these packets with whatever variety of summer squash you have on hand. Just use three medium squash.

When you open the foil packet, keep the opening pointed away from you because very hot steam collects inside during cooking, and the steam could burn you.

Halibut is a large, flat fish that usually weighs between 50 and 100 pounds but can top 1,000 pounds. Fished from northern ocean waters, halibut is firm and white with a mild flavor.

This was great! I did substitute the Halibut with Haddock because that is what I had, I served it over brown rice. So good!

I don't usually like fish and I loved this. It came out so tasty and the vegetables were delicious. Even the toddler loved it. I have used it multiple times.
