image via epicurious.com
Ladies! It’s Monday, beginning of the week, which means you’re probably mad busy between work, family, and other commitments. How about taking 15 minutes after you get home to make yourself a nice meal? Yes, just 15 minutes! I don’t want to hear any excuses – I’m tired, I don’t have time – stop at the store, pick up a few items, and throw this dish together real quick! Your taste buds and your waistline will appreciate the time and effort.
(Serves 4)
INGREDIENTS
- 4 Tilapia Filets
- Fish & Seafood Seasoning (2 tbsp or to taste)
- 2 tbsp cooking oil (I prefer regular cooking oil because it’s light and has a high smoke point)
DIRECTIONS
- Rinse tilapia filets in cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle fish & seafood seasoning on both sides of fish. Pat the seasoning onto the fish, making sure it sticks to the filets.
- Heat oil in non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, place tilapia filets in pan, cooking about 4 minutes on each side. You will be able to tell the fish is cooked once it flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove from pan and serve immediately with sauteed veggies or green salad and a starch.
- Enjoy the fact that you made a healthy, delicious, inexpensive meal at home!
