Lemon-Garlic Pan-Seared Tilapia with Roasted Asparagus
Savor this light yet flavor-packed dish featuring tender tilapia, pan-seared to perfection with a zesty lemon-garlic drizzle, accompanied by crisp roasted asparagus. An ideal blend of vibrant citrus and savory garlic, this plate elevates everyday ingredients into a satisfying and nutritious meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tilapia Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Black Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Rinse and pat dry the tilapia fillet. Season it lightly with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tilapia and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, minced garlic, and the remaining olive oil. Once the tilapia is cooked, drizzle this lemon-garlic mixture over the fillet.
While the fish is searing, toss the asparagus with a light drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the asparagus on a baking tray and roast in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Plate the tilapia alongside the roasted asparagus, and finish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired. Serve warm.
