A simple Tilapia recipe using Tiger Sauce as a marinade.
Ingredients
  • 2 Fresh Tilapia Filets
  • 1 Large Avocado, Halved
  • ¼ cup of each: diced tomato, chopped white onion, chopped green bell pepper, chopped red bell pepper, and chopped white mushrooms
  • 2 cups of Spring Greens lettuce mix (or similar– usually contains lettuces such as arugula and other baby greens as well as cilantro)
  • A small bunch of fresh cilantro (or parsley, used for garnish)
  • Tiger Sauce
Instructions
  1. Brush a large skillet with olive oil.
  2. Over medium heat, place tilapia filets on skillet.
  3. Pour Tiger Sauce on top of each filet (just covering fish, try not to spill too much into the pan).
  4. Cook for about 3 minutes and flip over (cooking time will vary based on the thickness of your filets.Your filet should be cooked a little less than halfway through when you flip them).
  5. Repeat step on the other side of the fish. There should now be a puddle of sauce in the skillet. Let it cook about another 2 minutes or until just heated through.
  6. Remove fish only from pan with a spatula. Allow sauce to continue to cook in your skillet until slightly thicker (about 1 minute).
  7. Turn the heat up to medium/high and add all chopped/diced vegetables to the sauce. Mix veggies into sauce until covered. Allow veggies to cook until heated through. Do not allow onions to become transparent.
  8. Remove from heat and spoon ½ of the vegetable mixture into the center of each avocado half. Garnish both avocado and fish with cilantro and serve on top of spring greens.
