Golden Pan-Seared Tilapia with Zesty Quinoa
Pan-seared tilapia fillets seasoned with turmeric for a vibrant golden crust, served over a zesty, citrus-infused quinoa salad with crunchy bell peppers.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz tilapia fillet
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
0.25 cup red bell pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp ground turmeric
PREPARATION
Pat the tilapia fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and ground turmeric.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the tilapia in the skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish cooks, combine the cooked quinoa, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, and finely diced red bell pepper in a medium mixing bowl.
Toss the quinoa mixture with fresh chopped parsley and a pinch of salt if desired.
Serve the golden tilapia fillets immediately over the zesty quinoa salad.
