Sauteed Tilapia With Creamed Corn And Chives Recipes

TILAPIA WITH CREAMY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place the tilapia fillets on the sheet, and coat them lightly with cooking spray. Spoon the melted margarine over each fillet, then drizzle with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Season with lemon pepper and 2 tablespoons of dill.
• Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
• While the fish is baking, combine the cream cheese, 5 tablespoons of lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of dill in a small bowl. Heat in the microwave for 1 minute and 10 seconds, then stir to blend.
• Place fillets onto serving plates, and spoon sauce around them in a decorative fashion.

SAUTEED TILAPIA WITH CREAMED CORN AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Thaw tilapia, if frozen. Rinse tilapia; pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle tilapia with pepper. Set aside.
• Combine 1 can of the corn, the half-and-half, cheese and garlic in a blender. Cover and blend until nearly smooth.
• Heat oil over medium-high heat in a 12-inch skillet. Cook tilapia in hot oil for 4 to 6 minutes or until tilapia flakes when tested with a fork, turning once. Remove from skillet; cover and keep warm.
• Add the corn mixture and the remaining can of corn to the skillet. Cook and stir over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes or until heated through. Serve corn with tilapia fillets. Sprinkle with chives.

CREAMY CORN WITH CHIVES

Steps:

• Working over a shallow bowl, cut off corn kernels, then scrape each cob with a knife to extract juice. Discard cobs.
• Purée 2 cups kernels, reserving remainder, and all of juice in a food processor 2 minutes, scraping down sides. Force through a fine sieve into a bowl and discard solids. Stir in salt, cornstarch, and sugar.
• Cook onion in butter in a saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring frequently, until softened. Add reserved kernels and water and simmer briskly, covered, stirring occasionally, until corn is crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Stir corn purée again, then stir into kernels. Bring to a boil, stirring, and simmer, stirring, until thickened, about 2 minutes. (If desired, thin with water.) Season with pepper and stir in chives.

CREAMED DRIED SWEET CORN WITH ONION AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Stir corn, milk, and cream in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring often, until onion is translucent and just starting to turn golden, about 6 minutes. Add corn mixture, sugar, and 1 Tbsp. salt. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring frequently, until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until creamed corn is thick, about 30 minutes.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper. Top with chives.
