Veracruz Style Tilapia image

This cooking light recipe was originally for Red Snapper, but since Tilapia is usually less expensive and easier to find, that is what I go with. This recipe also work wonderfully on the grill.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 (6 ounce) tilapia fillets or 4 (6 ounce) red snapper fillets
cooking spray
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper (fresh ground is always better)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup chopped green olives
1/4 cup prepared salsa
1 (16 ounce) can pinto beans
1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes

Steps:

  • Prepare the broiler by coating the pan with cooking spray.
  • Coat the fish fillets completely wih cooking spray.
  • Combine the cumin salt and pepper and sprinkle all over the fish.
  • The fillets will cook 5 minutes on each side (watch caefully if your fillets are thin).
  • While fish broils, combine the remaining ingredients to make the salsa.
  • Serve the fillets with 1/2 cup of salsa.
  • When spliting the recipe for 2 I will make the entire salsa portion and freeze it for future use, this recipe is also wonderful with lean pork chops.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The fish was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. I would recommend using less chili pepper next time.

I love the combination of flavors in this recipe. The tomatoes, onions, and peppers give the sauce a nice sweetness, while the capers and olives add a briny flavor. The fish is cooked perfectly and flakes easily.
