Savor tender, citrus-infused tilapia pan seared to a golden finish and accented with a medley of fresh garden vegetables, accented by bright lemon and fragrant herbs. This dish brings a refreshing burst of flavor and a satisfying crunch ideal for a nourishing dinner.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tilapia Fillet
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for searing)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
2 cups Romaine Lettuce
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
0.5 cup Cucumber
0.5 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (dressing)
PREPARATION
Pat the tilapia dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt (if desired) and freshly ground pepper.
In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley. Set aside for marinating the fish briefly.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tilapia fillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
In the last minute of cooking, drizzle the lemon-parsley mixture over the fish to infuse it with a burst of citrus herb flavor.
Meanwhile, prepare the fresh garden salad by combining chopped romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, and diced red bell pepper in a bowl. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, and toss gently to coat.
Plate the pan-seared tilapia alongside a generous serving of the garden salad, and serve immediately.
