Instructions
Watch how to make this recipe.
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Lay each fillet out on its own piece of foil. The foil should be a few inches longer than the fillet.
Drizzle each fillet with the olive oil.
Combine the garlic, tomatoes, shallots, thyme and some salt and pepper in a small bowl. Top each fillet with the tomato mixture. Fold over the fillet and roll up the edges to create a seal.
Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
Serve removed from the foil with veggies on the top and any sauce drizzled over the fish.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine
Tilapia can be paired with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The St. Michael-Eppan Anger Pinot Grigio with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 23 dollars per bottle.

St. Michael-Eppan Anger Pinot Grigio
Depending on the soil and microclimate, Pinot gris varies from a simple everyday wine all the way up to absolute top growths. The warm, sun-exposed vineyards of the Anger sites, with their loamy limestone gravel soils, are a textbook example. The Anger Alto Adige Pinot Grigio has a noble structure, nice balance and fine acidity – making it an absolute pleasure to drink. The strong white goes well with fish and fish soup, guinea fowl breast or veal fillet.
