MEDITERRANEAN TILAPIA
We had some beautiful tilapia fillets, but no recipes! I had recently bought some amazing sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, and decided to invent a slightly Mediterranean fish dish for a quick weeknight dinner. My husband is a recipe purist, always follows them to the letter, but after this, he's learned to trust my inventions!

Steps:

- Place the tilapia fillets side by side in a baking dish. Drizzle with oil and lemon juice.
- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the fish flakes with a fork. Check after 10 minutes, so as not to overcook, or the fish may be dry. When fish is done, top with the tomato mixture, and serve.

MEDITERRANEAN TILAPIA (WEIGHT WATCHERS 4 POINTS)
Incredibly fast and easy, not to mention very tasty! I make mine on a foil-lined tray in my toaster oven, one serving at a time. :) Make as many servings as you like simply by multiplying each ingredient by the number of servings.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven (or toaster oven) to 400.
- Line a shallow pan with foil. Use enough foil so that you can double it back over the top of the dish when it is ready to cook.
- Pour olive oil in a fish-size line on the foil. Place fish on top of oil, flipping it over to coat all of the fish in the oil.
- Spritz fish with lemon juice (use more or less, to your taste).
- Rub garlic across the top of the filet so it is evenly distributed.
- Sprinkle feta over the fish evenly. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Fold the foil (loosely) over the fish. This isn't critical, but it does help keep the fish moist if you should happen to overcook it.
- Bake for 6-7 minutes. Test fish for doneness by flaking with a fork. Flakes should fall apart effortlessly; you shouldn't have to "cut" the fish at all, but rather just separate the flakes.
- Some people might prefer to leave the foil off the top if they want the garlic to brown up a bit. I haven't tried this, so I can't say how it would work. You might try removing the foil in the last 2 minutes of cooking or so if you want to give it a shot.
