Old favorites

This is one of my husband’s favorite dinners and a great go to meal for a weeknight.  Tilapia is inexpensive (especially when it is on special at Graul’s like it is this week) and this is quick to fix.  We had a little bit of leftover skillet corn which we finished with the tilapia and broccoli.  Samantha has decided that she likes it too so I’ve promised to make another batch this weekend.

Tilapia with Butter Caper Sauce

Per Serving

  • 1 Tilapia filet
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • Salt, pepper and paprika to taste
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 1/2 tsp capers
  • 2 tsps olive oil

Combine flour with salt, pepper and paprika and dredge tilapia filets in flour.  Heat a non-stick saute pan over medium heat and swirl in olive oil.  Brown tilapia 3 – 4 minutes per side.  While cooking fish, in a small sauce pan, melt butter with capers.  When fish is cooked, spoon sauce over fish and serve.

Broccoli

  • Broccoli florets
  • 1 oz. parmesan cheese

Steam broccoli, 5-6 minutes or until tender.  Grate parmesan cheese over broccoli and serve.

easy dinner!
