Make MyPlate Pinterest Challenge: grilled tilapia with smoked paprika and parmesan polenta @allrecipes
Im back on the MyPlate Pinterest Challenge wagon!
This week, I made a tasty tilapia dish from AllRecipes.com: Grilled Tilapia with Smoked Paprika and Parmesan Polenta. I must admit, however, that I took a few shortcuts and made a few additions.
For the tilapia, my husband grilled frozen fillets from Costco. For the polenta, I used premade polenta from Trader Joes that I had wanted to use for some time. I sliced the polenta and sauted in olive oil, sprinkled with grated parmesan cheese and dried parsley, and served it alongside chopped sauted zucchini.
It looked great on the plate, but I thought it needed something else (hmm, maybe the homemade polenta?). While it would be great with a tomato or fruit salsa, I had neither on hand. So, I quickly chopped up some tomatoes and sauted in olive oil for a few minutes, just long enough for the tomatoes to soften and release some juice. And, they were a perfect addition to the fish. Definitely an easyand tastyway to prepare tilapia!
TELL US: What are your favorite sauces or salsas for fish? Wed love to hear from you!
