Steps:
- Place the fish in the center of the foil, season with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil.
- Place a slice of lemon on top of each piece of fish, then a sprig of herbs on each.
- Fold up the edges so that it's completely sealed and no steam will escape, creating a loose tent.
- Heat half of the grill (on one side) on high heat with the cover closed.
- When the grill is hot, place the foil packets on the side of the grill with the burners off (indirect heat) and close the grill.
- Depending on the thickness of your fish, cook 10 to 15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and cooked through. My porgy fillets took about 12 minutes.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium heat. Whisk 1 Tbsp. honey, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest in a small bowl to combine. Add 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped, 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature, and 2 Tbsp. finely chopped dill and whisk again to combine (some lemon zest may remain separate and that's okay).
- Tear off a large piece of foil according to the length and thickness of salmon (15x15" or larger) and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Place one 1 lb. boneless salmon fillet, preferably skin-on, arranging skin side down if skin is on, in center of foil (the skin will stick slightly to foil and brown while the fish cooks; you want this as it will add to the sauce). Spread garlic butter over fish, then drizzle 3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice on top. Carefully fold one side of foil up and over fish so lemon juice stays contained, then bring other sides up to meet it and fold together to seal, leaving about a 4" opening on top for steam to escape (this will help sauce reduce a bit).
- Place foil packet on grate and grill fish until opaque throughout and firm, 16-20 minutes. Transfer packet to a cutting board and let fish rest 5 minutes.
- Carefully open foil packet and cut fish in half. Transfer to plates; pour juices from packet over. Drizzle fish with remaining 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice, dividing evenly, and top with more finely chopped dill.

Tips:
* **Choose the right fish.** Not all fish are created equal when it comes to grilling. Some fish, like salmon and tuna, are naturally oily and can withstand the heat of the grill. Others, like cod and tilapia, are more delicate and need to be cooked more carefully. * **Preheat your grill.** This will help to prevent the fish from sticking. * **Use a well-oiled grill grate.** This will also help to prevent the fish from sticking. * **Season the fish.** You can use a variety of seasonings, but some popular options include salt, pepper, garlic, and lemon. * **Wrap the fish in foil.** This will help to keep the fish moist and flavorful. * **Cook the fish over medium heat.** This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking. * **Check the fish for doneness.** The fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork. ###Conclusion:
Grilling fish in foil is a great way to cook a healthy and flavorful meal. By following these tips, you can ensure that your fish comes out perfect every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give grilled fish in foil a try. You won't be disappointed!
