I found this posted online and made it right away. This is sooooo easy to prepare and tastes DELICIOUS! Next time I make it, I'm going to toss in some minced garlic with the tomatoes, I believe. It had a bit too much liquid to it, but I just sprinkled some over the fish and enjoyed it.

Categories     Fish     Bake

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 to 6 tilapia filets
Olive oil
8 to 12 ounces baby spinach
1/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 a small yellow onion, chopped coarsely
Salt and pepper
Creole seasoning blend
1 small tomato, chopped
4 green onions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in pan with chopped onions until golden. Add spinach to pan for a minute or two to wilt it slightly. Coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil and add the spinach. Sprinkle spinach with salt and pepper; add the chicken broth. Sprinkle tilapia filets lightly with salt, pepper, and creole seasonings. Arrange the filets over the spinach and sprinkle with chopped tomato and sliced green onion. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake at 350° for 25 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh tilapia fillets: Look for fillets that are firm and have a slightly briny smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have an off odor.
  • Season the tilapia fillets generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The type of vegetables you use is up to you, but some good options include spinach, tomatoes, onions, and zucchini.
  • Don't overcook the tilapia: Tilapia is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the tilapia immediately: Tilapia is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to ensure that it is moist and flaky.

Conclusion:

Spinach baked tilapia is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its mild flavor and flaky texture, tilapia is a great fish to pair with a variety of vegetables and sauces. This recipe is a great way to get your daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids and vegetables.
