This recipe is from Yum in Tum and, according to the date on the post, I’ve had it in my files of recipes to make for 2 years.  Oops.  I get distracted!  I must say that I really love tilapia.  It’s got a very mild taste so it can be paired with so many other flavors.  It’s a very moist and quick to cook up fish, less than 10 minutes in the skillet!  While I certainly don’t love it more than salmon for home cooking, it’s a close second. 

This preparation is very easy and quick.  It’s also tasty which is really what matters most!  I served ours with rice.
