Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees; prepare a baking sheet by spraying with non-stick cooking spray, rinse and dry fillets. Place on prepared baking sheet and season to taste with salt and pepper. Bake fish in oven until it flakes easily with fork, about 12 to 15 minutes.
- While the fish bakes, warm 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat; add diced peppers and zucchini; saute until crisp tender, season with salt and pepper, divide cooked vegetables among 4 plates and top with cooked fish fillet.
- For the sauce; reduce heat to medium and add the remaining oil to pan. Gradually whisk in half-and-half and then cheese; stir until the cheese is melted and sauce begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Stir in chives, season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Drizzle with cheese sauce over plated fish; garnish with additional chives if desired.
Tips:
- Choose Tilapia Fillets with Skin: The skin helps keep the fish moist and flavorful during baking.
- Use Parchment Paper: Lining the baking sheet with parchment paper prevents the fish from sticking and makes cleanup easier.
- Don't Overcook the Fish: Tilapia cooks quickly, so it's important to watch it closely to prevent overcooking and drying out.
- Make the French Onion Sauce Ahead of Time: The sauce can be made up to 2 days in advance and reheated before serving.
- Serve with Your Favorite Sides: Baked tilapia with French onion sauce pairs well with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Conclusion:
Baked tilapia fillets with French onion sauce is an easy and delicious dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal.
