FRENCH TILAPIA WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS



French Tilapia With Peppers and Onions image

I served this over spaghetti squash. Put the pepper mixture on top, and the tilapia on the side. It was really good, and took only minutes to throw together. My dh ate 3 fillets, that's why I say this serves 2. This is called "french" because, the coating is made the way the French will coat chicken in flour first and then the egg. I made this low in fat, but be my guest to use full fat ingredients.

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

20 ounces tilapia fillets
1/2 cup flour

1/4 garlic powder
1 egg, beaten

  • Beat the egg in a bowl.
  • Dip each fillet in the FLOUR first to coat, and then the egg. (Note, the egg will slip off the flour a bit, so just turn it a couple times until the egg adheres - then add to the pan).
  • Add the cooking spray and the butter to a large skillet and heat until bubbly.
  • Add the fish to the hot pan and turn the heat to med-high. Cook for about 3 minutes, and turn when it is brown.

  • Add the capers and stir to mix and heat through.
  • Add the white wine and cook for about 2 minutes until it is reduced a little. Add the sour cream and the parmesan cheese. Cook until bubbling and the cheese is melted. Grind some freshly ground black pepper over the top.
