Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ cup extra virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
1 large onion, sliced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
4 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat bottom of a medium baking dish with about 1/4 cup olive oil.
  • In a small bowl, blend remaining olive oil, tomato paste, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper.
  • Arrange tilapia fillets in the prepared baking dish, skin side up. With a spatula, spread the olive oil and tomato paste mixture over the tilapia, heaping the majority in the centers of the fillets. Arrange onion and green pepper slices on and around the fillets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven 15 minutes, until fish is easily flaked with a fork. Remove from heat, top each fillet with 1 tablespoon butter, and set oven to broil. Broil 5 to 7 minutes, until butter is melted and lightly brown.

The fish was a little dry, but the lemon-herb butter helped to make up for it. Overall, it was a decent recipe, but I'll probably try a different one next time.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning, maybe some garlic or paprika.
