If you like Tilapia and curry, this recipe will be a favorite.
Yield:
4 servings
Time:
20 minutes
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, sliced
1 red & 1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 Tbsp Fish Sauce or salt to taste
1 Tbsp Yellow or Red Curry Paste
1 can Coconut Milk
4 Tilapia fillets, equal in size Garnish
1 lime, quartered
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Cooking Instructions
1 Heat oil in a large skillet over a medium high heat. Add onions and peppers. Stir fry until tender-crisp.
2 Add Fish Sauce and Curry Paste to vegetables. Cook, stirring constantly, until Curry Paste is dissolved and fragrant. Pour in Coconut Milk and bring to a boil.
3 Salt & pepper tilapia on both sides (to your preference) and place in pan. Spoon vegetables and sauce on top of fish. Turn heat down to an active simmer.
Cook 2-4 minutes on each side, depending on thickness. Fish is done when it's opaque all the way through and flakes easily with a fork.
4 Serve immediately with lime and a sprinkle of cilantro. This dish goes especially well with a side of jasmine rice or rice noodles.
