Spicy Yaji Tilapia with Brown Rice and Steamed Spinach
Pan-seared tilapia rubbed in bold Nigerian Yaji spices, served with nutty brown rice and tender steamed spinach for a finish that is perfectly flaky.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Tilapia Fillet
1 cup cooked Brown Rice
7 ounces Fresh Spinach
1.5 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Yaji (Suya) Spice Blend
PREPARATION
Cook the brown rice according to package directions until tender and fluffy.
Pat the tilapia fillets completely dry with a paper towel and rub both sides generously with the Yaji spice blend.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the tilapia for 3 to 4 minutes per side until a golden crust forms and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish is searing, steam the fresh spinach in a steamer basket over boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes until just wilted.
Serve the spicy tilapia fillets over the bed of brown rice with the vibrant steamed spinach on the side.
