Mediterranean Tilapia

SUBMITTED BY: FLAPJACK18 PHOTO BY: Kristen

"We had some beautiful tilapia fillets, but no recipes! I had recently bought some amazing sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, and decided to invent a slightly Mediterranean fish dish for a quick weeknight dinner. My husband is a recipe purist, always follows them to the letter, but after this, he's learned to trust my inventions!"

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 3 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon capers, drained
  • 2 tilapia fillets
  • 1 tablespoon oil from the jar of sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons kalamata olives, pitted and chopped

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In a small bowl, stir together the sun-dried tomatoes, olives and capers. Set aside.
  2. Place the tilapia fillets side by side in a baking dish. Drizzle with oil and lemon juice.
  3. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the fish flakes with a fork. Check after 10 minutes, so as not to overcook, or the fish may be dry. When fish is done, top with the tomato mixture, and serve.

It was "ok." After paying the price for Tilapia, though, I wish I had cooked it another way. MORE
