Turn this little sucker
into a tasty dinner...
So I don't usually talk about food much on this blog, but I am no slouch in the kitchen, and every once in a while, I put together a recipe that turns out really well. This is one of them:
Pan-Fried Tilapia with Chipotle-Tomato Sauce
4 tilapia fillets
2 red tomatoes, diced
1 clove garlic (more to taste), minced
1 tsp chipotle powder (more to taste)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 white onion, chopped
1 TB butter
Flour for dredging
Fish: Heat up olive oil on medium heat; dredge tilapia fillets in flour (brush on olive oil for a little more stick) and cook for approx. 3 mins. per side
Sauce: Melt butter on medium heat; add garlic and onion (do not brown); add tomatoes and spices; you can also add a pinch of sugar and salt, which I found gave the tomatoes a nice sweet tang that blended very well with the slight spiciness; cook on medium-low for 15 mins. or until it reduces down a little
