I recently found my love of tilapia and found a super easy but yummy meal (it is inspired by the Chili's dish) if anyone is interested.
Get some tilapia filets from your grocery store and defrost, I usually do 2 so that is what this recipe is geared towards.
Melt a tablespoon of butter in the microwave and mix a teaspoon of lime juice with it. Brush this on boath sides of the tilapia and cook it in a pan on the stove in medium head for about 3-5 mins each side. (no need to add anymore oil or anything to the pan, the butter makes it not stick) I like to let it get brown on the edges, very yummy when you do that.
Dice up half and avacado and half a mango and serve them on top of the tilapia. Best if these are cold but not necessary.
Thats it, takes maybe 15 mins to make and I love it, hopefully you will too!

Yum!! That sounds great! I needed something new to do with it, normally I just take a frozen filet brush on olive oil and season with lemon pepper and throw on the foreman for about 2 minutes.0

I like tilapia so I'll have to try that!
I like it sauteed in Land-o-Lakes Saute Express Lemon/Pepper. Actually tonight I'll be grilling it some foil with the Saute Express and a little bit of lemon juice.0 -
