INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tilapia Fillet
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 cup cooked Jasmine Rice
2 Garlic Cloves
1/2 Lemon
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Rinse the tilapia fillet and pat dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Mince the garlic cloves finely. Add them into the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Place the tilapia fillet in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish cooks, reheat or prepare the cooked jasmine rice in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir in the remaining minced garlic and a pinch of salt into the rice to infuse flavor.
Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the cooked tilapia and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
Plate the tilapia alongside a serving of garlic rice. Garnish with extra parsley and a lemon wedge if desired.
