SPICY TILAPIA WITH MUSHROOMS AND ZUCCHINI
I wanted to add more fish to my diet so one day I bought fresh Tilapia and looked online for an easy recipe to cook that evening because I never buy fresh fish and didn't know the first thing how to cook it. I found a recipe similar but I added my own special touch to it and pretty much changed the original. My husband and I loved it. Here's my version!

Steps:
- Instructions.
- Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Stir-fry onion, garlic clove and pepper until crisp-tender, then add zucchini and continue to cook for a short time. Finally add mushrooms. Push veggies off to the side. Sprinkle one side of Tilapia with Cajun seasoning. Add to skillet. Cook about three minutes and turn.
- Cut lime in half and squeeze lime juice on tilapia from one half of the lime. Use the other half for serving if you like to squeeze it fresh on your fish. Sprinkle cayenne pepper according to taste. Then cover and continue to cook until fish is done, about another three minutes. Serve.
- Pan may dry after sautéing veggies, so I spray some olive oil spray before I place tilapia in pan to keep it from sticking. I also like to add a sprinkle of Marjoram on fish.
- I like to serve it with Steamed Jasmine Rice.

TILAPIA SAUTEED WITH GARLIC AND MUSHROOMS
This is a quick recipe can be fixed in 30 min or less. It is bursting with flavor and love. I put this together in my own kitchen one day [like many other ideas] and this one inspired me to post. One thing i would like to add: Make sure that the tilapia fillets that u buy are no less than about half an inch thick to prevent the fish from falling apart. I hope you enjoy.

Steps:

- Next take the italian salad dressing and slowly pour it over the fish so the seasonings wont run off. do this to both sides. let the fish marinade for 10-15 minutes.
- Then in a non-stick skillet or wok, sautee the butter, garlic, garlic wine vinegar and mushrooms on medium heat [#4 or #5] covered with a lid for about 3-5 minutes or until the aroma of the wine vinegar and garlic are strong in fragrance. Next place the fillets in the skillet with the garlic and mushrooms. Do not change the heat setting. Cook on one side for about 8 minutes covered. Check for firmness. Then turn over the fillets and cook for about 2 more minutes covered.
- Once finished, remove from heat and serve immediately. The sauce leftover with the sauteed garlic and mushrooms can be served on top of the fillets.

Tips:
- To ensure the tilapia is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 145°F (63°C).
- For added flavor, marinate the tilapia in a mixture of lemon juice, olive oil, and herbs before cooking.
- If you don't have white wine, you can substitute chicken broth or vegetable broth.
- If you want a thicker sauce, add a cornstarch slurry to the pan after the mushrooms have cooked.
- Serve the tilapia with rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
