My Mom made these for us when we were kids and we loved it...now I'm getting my kids to learn to love fish, too! The sodium content is higher than I'd like, but there are probable some lower sodium alternatives to the A-1 Sauce that can be used. I'll post a pic next time I make them, I'm going to try it with Tilapia, I think it'd work well with any of the white fish

1/4 cup a -1 steak sauce (i use original, but any of the varieties would do, i'm gonna try the tangy variety next time

How To Make fish boats

Step 1

Use a square piece of foil to make 4 foil "pouches", or use the pre-formed foil packages available by Reynolds.

Step 2

Melt the butter or margarine in microwave safe bowl.
Step 3

Add remaining ingredient to combine thoroughly.
Step 4

Divide the fish equally into the 4 pouches pour 1/4 of the mixture on top of fish in each pouch, then seal the pouch to resemble a boat, leave air-space for the steam that's generated to help cook the fish
Step 5

Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for twenty minutes. Use caution when opening the pouches, as the escaping steam can burn you.
Step 6

I always serve this with brown rice (my Mom also used Wild rice sometimes) as a side dish to help sop up the delicious juices from the marinade, but now since watching carb intake will opt for a serving of veggies on the side and a salad. My Mom actually added it to inside the boat prior to serving, but you can skip using the remaining extra juices for those that are calorie or sodium conscious
