CILANTRO LIME FISH
This is a good one for those of us who love lime, since that is the predominant flavor here. Use cod, flounder, or any firm white fish for this. I used Tilapia, and in place of the dried onion I used fresh. I served it with Recipe #120719. From Taste of Home's Quick Cooking (September/October 1999).

Tips:
- Choose the right fish: For this recipe, a firm-fleshed fish like cod, halibut, or salmon works best. You can also use tilapia or catfish, but they may be more delicate and prone to falling apart.
- Make sure the fish is fresh: The fresher the fish, the better the flavor will be. Look for fish that is bright-eyed, firm to the touch, and has a mild, briny smell.
- Don't overcook the fish: Fish cooks quickly, so it's important to not overcook it. Otherwise, it will become dry and tough. Cook the fish until it is just opaque in the center, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil will help to flavor the fish and keep it moist. Look for an extra virgin olive oil that has a fruity or peppery flavor.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices: The cilantro and lime in this recipe are a classic combination, but you can also try other herbs and spices like basil, oregano, thyme, or paprika.
Conclusion:
Cilantro lime fish is a light, refreshing, and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables. Enjoy!
