Minimum number of tiles? Probably 2, maybe 3 - seriously. It all depends on the map. Remember - the Palace is mobile; the FP is usually fixed.
I very often (after getting a sense of the map) will decide to build my FP pretty close to my original Palace (which means I will often not waste a leader rushing an FP). If, after a view of the map, I expect to relocate my palace at some point (say my capital starts out on the coast, for example), I want my FP up and running in a decent location before the opportunity ever presents itself to relocate my palace. This may mean an FP build in the early BCs, as soon as I get the chance to have an FP built (or anticipate that the chance wil present itself within the next city founding or conquest, as appropriate).
