Tilapia With Peppers And Olives Recipe 455

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Lightly oil a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the fillets in one layer.
• In a bowl stir together the oil, the thyme, the tomatoes, the olives, the red pepper flakes, the garlic, the onion, and the lime juice.
• In the prepared baking dish arrange the fillets, skin sides down, season them with salt, and spoon the tomato mixture over them.
• Bake the fish, uncovered, in the middle of the oven 15 to 20 minutes, or until it just flakes.

Steps:

• 1.Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. 2.Season the fish with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook until opaque throughout, 4 to 5 minutes per side. 3.Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a second large skillet over medium-high heat. 4.Cook the peppers and onion, stirring often, until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. 5.Stir the olives, parsley, lime juice, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper into the vegetables. Serve with the fish.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Pull 1 tablespoon thyme leaves off the bunch and finely chop.
• Season fish all over with a large pinch or two of salt and pepper and rub with chopped thyme leaves. Let rest at room temperature while you prepare peppers.
• Spread peppers on a rimmed sheet pan, and toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the black pepper to taste. Top peppers with the remaining thyme sprigs. Roast, tossing occasionally, until peppers are softened and golden at the edges, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Increase oven temperature to 500 degrees. Push peppers to the edges of the pan, clearing a space in the center. Lay fish out on that empty space and drizzle with oil. Scatter olives over the top of fish and peppers. Roast until fish turns opaque and is just cooked through, 6 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make a vinaigrette by combining vinegar, garlic and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Whisk in remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, then whisk in parsley. Taste and add more salt or vinegar, or both, if needed. Serve fish and peppers drizzled with vinaigrette.

Steps:

• For the fish:.
• Put the flour, the salt and pepper, and garlic powder in a bowl and stir to mix.
• Beat the egg in a bowl.
• Dip each fillet in the FLOUR first to coat, and then the egg. (Note, the egg will slip off the flour a bit, so just turn it a couple times until the egg adheres - then add to the pan).
• Add the cooking spray and the butter to a large skillet and heat until bubbly.
• Add the fish to the hot pan and turn the heat to med-high. Cook for about 3 minutes, and turn when it is brown. You really have to watch the fish so it doesn't burn -- Cook another 3 minutes on the other side, until browned (add a little more butter if you need to). When browned remove and keep fish warm.
• For the peppers and onions:.
• Coat another large skillet with cooking spray, and heat until hot. Add the sliced onions and peppers and saute until a little browned and soft. (Add a little water if you need to, and turn down the heat if they are browning too quickly).
• Add the capers and stir to mix and heat through.
• Add the white wine and cook for about 2 minutes until it is reduced a little. Add the sour cream and the parmesan cheese. Cook until bubbling and the cheese is melted. Grind some freshly ground black pepper over the top.
• Delicious served over spaghetti squash and with a garnish of fresh parsley.
