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.

VERACRUZ-STYLE RED SNAPPER



Veracruz-Style Red Snapper image

I like red snapper for this, but any white, flaky fish will work. By the way, many Veracruz-style fish recipes call for pickled jalapenos, but I think there's plenty of acidity in this from the lime and tomatoes, so I like the fresh pepper a little more.

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
½ white onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced

Top with more filling and juice from 1 lime. Repeat with remaining snapper fillet, seasoning, and lime juice in a second baking dish.
