In tools section of Project.json add this-

  "tools": {
    "BundlerMinifier.Core": "2.2.281",
    ....

On saving Project.json, VS2015 automatically restore packages.

If it doesn't worked then right click on project and click on Restore Packages option.

If this doesn't worked then try restoring using dotnet restore CLI command.

See if this helps.
