INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tilapia Fillet
1 cup Fresh Asparagus
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for roasting)
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for marinade)
1 medium Lemon
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 tbsp Fresh Dill
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the tilapia fillet dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, the juice and zest of one lemon, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and dill. Season with salt and pepper.
Rub the marinade evenly over the tilapia fillet and let it rest for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once heated, place the tilapia in the skillet and pan-sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until the fish is opaque and easily flakes with a fork.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are tender with slightly crispy tips.
Plate the seared tilapia alongside the roasted asparagus. Optionally, drizzle any remaining pan juices over the fish for extra flavor.
