Recipe View Rest and serve: Carefully remove the foil packet from the grill. Let it rest for a minute before opening to allow the steam to finish cooking the fish. Serve immediately.

For extra flavor, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before sealing the foil packet.
If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can bake the foil packet in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as bell peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms.
Use high-quality balsamic vinegar for the best flavor.
Be careful when opening the foil packet, as hot steam will escape.
