Savor the bright flavors of this perfectly pan-seared tilapia accented with zesty lemon and aromatic garlic, served alongside tender roasted asparagus. A delicate yet satisfying dish that balances freshness with a slight crunch from the asparagus, ideal for a light, nutritious dinner.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tilapia Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the tilapia fillet dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper.
Finely mince the garlic and zest the half lemon; then squeeze the lemon juice.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
Add the tilapia fillet to the hot pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side until it becomes opaque and easily flakes.
In the meantime, preheat your oven to 425°F. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with a light splash of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 10 minutes until tender.
Once the tilapia is cooked, drizzle with the lemon juice, and sprinkle the minced garlic and lemon zest on top.
Plate the tilapia with a side of roasted asparagus and serve warm.
