Ingredients

  • 1 can (14.5 oz) stewed tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 can (2 1/4 oz) sliced ripe olives, drained
  • 1/4 cup pesto
  • 2 lb whitefish or other lean fish fillet
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps

  • 1
    Heat gas or charcoal grill. In medium nonmetal bowl, mix tomatoes, olives and pesto.
  • 2
    Place fish on 24x12-inch sheet of heavy-duty foil. Sprinkle salt and pepper over fish. Top with tomato mixture. Bring up 2 sides of foil over fish so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space on sides for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
  • 3
    Place on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 20 to 30 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork. Top with parsley.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Other lean fish you could use in this recipe include cod, haddock, halibut, perch, pollack and red snapper.
  • tip 2
    A roll of heavy-duty foil is one of a camp cook's best friends! In addition to being used for cooking packets, it can come in handy for other uses. In a pinch, make a foil cup to hold basting sauces, or punch holes in a foil bowl to use as a colander.
