Baked Tilapia Dinner
Let me just start off by saying, I'm not a person who likes to eat fish or anything that came out of the ocean for that matter. So, I'm trying to find recipes with fish that aren't too "fishy" so that I can get used to the taste. I know fish is really good for you and I especially need it with my thyroid problems, so I'm making myself like it. Just like when I was a kid, I have to sit at the table until I clean my plate! This was our meal last night and I ate all of it (so proud of myself). Hope you enjoy the recipe.
Crunchy Baked Tilapia (with asparagus and corn)
3 fillets of Tilapia
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 egg whites
salt and pepper
1/4 cup Panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
1/2 tbsp. dried basil
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place flour, salt and pepper in one bowl, whipped egg whites in another, and bread crumbs and basil in the last. Dip the fish in the flour and shake off excess amounts. Next dip into the eggs, then into the bread crumbs until coated. Put the tilapia in a greased baking dish, be sure to fold under any thin edges so that it cooks more evenly. Bake for 15 minutes or until the fish is flaky. Enjoy.
Asparagus
1 bunch of asparagus
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
salt and pepper
Place the oil and vinegar into a bowl and mix. Put the asparagus in and coat well. Lay asparagus on a shallow cookie sheet, spread out. Salt and pepper. Bake with the fish for 15 minutes.
Corn
Boil a pot of water (size depending on how much corn you are cooking) and add the cleaned ears of corn. Cook while the fish and asparagus are cooking. Everything should be done about the same time.
