Time 1h

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 22

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
3 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia fillets
1 tablespoon Creole seasoning
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 lime, juiced
1 tablespoon butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup chopped yellow onion
1 large Anaheim chile pepper - stemmed, seeded, and chopped
4 roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped
¼ cup dry white wine
1 cup chicken stock
1 (4 ounce) can sliced black olives
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with half the olive oil. Rub the tilapia fillets in the oil to coat both sides. Season with the Creole seasoning, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt; sprinkle with the cilantro. Drizzle the fillets with the lime juice and remaining olive oil; set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic, onion, and Anaheim pepper; cook and stir until the onion has softened and begun to brown around the edges, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes more. Pour in the wine and simmer 1 minute, stirring constantly. Pour in the chicken stock and olives; season with cumin, cayenne pepper, oregano, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, red pepper flakes, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer about 20 minutes.
  • Bake the tilapia in the preheated oven until the flesh turns white and is easily flaked with a fork, about 20 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the fish to serve.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The tilapia still tasted great!

I had a hard time finding tilapia at my local grocery store. I ended up using cod instead, and it turned out great.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tilapia didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The sauce was a little too spicy for my taste.
