Drain the fish fillets and pat dry.

Place 1 piece of fish on each of eight 12-inch squares of heavy duty aluminum foil. Spoon some tomato mixture onto the fish. Fold foil over the fish and seal securely. Place the foil packets in an ungreased jelly roll pan, 15 1/2 X 10 1/2 X 1-inch. Bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 30 minutes. Serve with snipped fresh cilantro and lemon wedges if desired.
