Veracruz Style Tilapia - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
4 (6 ounce) tilapia fillets or (6 ounce) red snapper fillets
cooking spray
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper (fresh ground is always better)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup chopped green olives
1/4 cup prepared salsa
1 (16 ounce) can pinto beans
1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes
Preparation
-
Prepare the broiler by coating the pan with cooking spray.
Coat the fish fillets completely wih cooking spray.
Combine the cumin salt and pepper and sprinkle all over the fish.
The fillets will cook 5 minutes on each side (watch caefully if your fillets are thin).
While fish broils, combine the remaining ingredients to make the salsa.
Serve the fillets with 1/2 cup of salsa.
When spliting the recipe for 2 I will make the entire salsa portion and freeze it for future use, this recipe is also wonderful with lean pork chops.
