Yes.. another recipe. Although this one is not spicy at all.. surprise! Eating healthier has made my dishes a lot more plain.. not that they are bad by any means.. just not piling on the hot sauce or making my famous spicy chicken Alfredo (skinny version to come soon.. because its to die for). So here you have it...
Lemon Garlic Tilapia
Frozen Tilapia(I use Kroger brand.. 3.99 a bag!)
1tbs Garlic
1tbs Butter
1/4 cup Lemon juice
sprinkle with dried parsley
The recipe I adapted from was from skinnytase I love this website! Her recipe calls for 2tbs of butter and only 2tbs of lemon juice.. I used more because I cooked zucchini with mine and wanted everything covered. The Zucchini tends to dry out.
I made this last night, and only used 1tbs of butter and it seemed fine. Tonight I made it with 2tbs and more lemon juice because the plan was to cook for the fam.. but they had tacos instead!
(I died a little inside from the cheesy fatty goodness)
The fish was still good.. its pretty impossible to screw this one up.
melt butter in pan
add garlic and saute for a minute or so
add lemon juice
set aside.
I cooked mine in a glass casserole dish, layered the fish and zucchini and poured the sauce over everything. Cook at 400 degrees for about 20 min.
Its honestly really hard for me to say an exact time because I just do the "check to see how it looks" method. I took my fish out when the edges looked like they were starting to brown and the sauce was boiling.
The best part... my 2yr old ate it!
Each filet is 110 calories! and has 33 grams of protein. Score.
I apologize for the not so appealing pictures that you might find on awesome food blogs.. I'm an amateur.

Enjoy.
