Seared Tilapia with Steamed Asparagus
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dinner featuring perfectly seared tilapia paired with tender steamed asparagus. A drizzle of olive oil adds a silky finish while a squeeze of lemon elevates the fresh and clean flavors of the dish.
INGREDIENTS
150g Tilapia Fillet
150g Asparagus
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 Lemon Wedge
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the tilapia fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tsp olive oil to the skillet.
Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the tilapia fillet in the pan. Sear for about 3-4 minutes on one side until a golden crust forms, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
While the fish is searing, steam the asparagus. Place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and cook for about 4-5 minutes until just tender but still bright green.
Remove the tilapia from the skillet, drizzle with the remaining 1 tsp olive oil and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
Plate the seared tilapia alongside the steamed asparagus and serve immediately.
