Pan-Seared Tilapia with Roasted Zucchini
Flaky tilapia fillets pan-seared to a golden finish and served with tender, herb-roasted zucchini rounds for a light and vibrant dinner.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz tilapia fillets
2 medium zucchini
1.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp smoked paprika
0.5 whole lemon
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the zucchini into half-inch rounds and place them in a bowl, tossing with 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil, 0.25 teaspoons of sea salt, and the dried oregano.
Spread the zucchini in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 15-18 minutes until tender and slightly browned.
While the zucchini roasts, pat the tilapia fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with the remaining salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the pan is hot, add the tilapia and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from heat, squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the fish, and serve immediately alongside the roasted zucchini.
