Ep. 13 - Foofy Tilapia

This turned out super yummy! I had originally planned to put capers in it, but my capers disappeared somewhere between the store and my house (the missing capers caper?). So i used the green olives instead. This had a really "sophisticated" flavor - which is why I said it was restauarant quality - it's very complex - not your average slab of tilapia!

Recipe:

• 2 tilapia filets (4 oz total)
• 1 clove garlic minced
• 3 slices lemon
• 6 cherry tomatoes cut in half
• 5 green olives
• sprinkle of parsley, salt, pepper

Spread tinfoil on a baking sheet and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray PAM on tinfoil and place the lemon slices in the middle of the tinfoil. Place the tilapia on top of the lemon slices. Top that with the garlic, tomatoes, and olives and sprinkle with parsely, salt, pepper, or any other seasonings you want. Fold in sides of tinfoil to make a packet and cook for 30 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
