Best 6 Tilapia With Sweet Potatoes Recipes

BAKED TILAPIA WITH TOMATOES AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray; add the potatoes and spread in an even layer. Roast until browned and crisp, tossing halfway through, about 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the tomatoes, olives, capers and garlic with 1 teaspoon olive oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar and 1 teaspoon thyme in a bowl. Coat another baking sheet with cooking spray; add the tomato mixture and spread in an even layer. Roast until softened, 15 minutes.
• Mix the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon thyme, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl; brush on the fish. Place the fish on top of the roasted tomato mixture and return to the oven until just cooked through, about 10 minutes. Divide among plates and serve with the potatoes.

TILAPIA WITH SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Peel sweet potatoes and cut in half lengthwise, then slice 1/3" thick.
• Cut large onion into 1/2" slices.
• Stem and seed large red pepper, cut into 1 1/2" chunks.
• Toss vegetables with 3 T. olive oil, thyme, and 1 T. Old Bay seasoning. Place on oiled baking sheet. Bake 25-30 minutes or until vegetables are tender and brown, stirring halfway through.
• Place fish in single layer on another oiled baking sheet. Whisk 1 T. olive oil, lemon juice, garlic cloves and 1 T. Old Bay seasoning. Drizzle over fish.
• When vegetables have roasted about 15 minutes, stir vegetables and put the pan of fish in the oven. Bake until fish flakes easily - about 10 minutes per inch of thickness.

OLD BAY TILAPIA, SWEET POTATOES AND VEGGIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes (or remove the skin, but I like to keep it). Cut them into cubes about 3/4 inch in size. Place in a 13x9 inch pan.
• Chop the onion and peppers into 1 inch by 1/4 inch slices. (I think that the dish look better when they are this size. It's really not important how large they are.) Add to the pan.
• Dice tomato. Add to pan with other veggies.
• Add olive oil, old bay seasoning, pepper, and parsley to taste. Stir well to coat veggies.
• Bake in oven for 25 minutes.
• Add tilapia filets to bottom of pan by scooping veggies aside and covering the fish with some of the veggies. Bake additional 20 minutes until fish flakes.

TILAPIA AND MASHED YAMS WITH PANCETTA-SAGE BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• Sautépancetta in large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Transfer to small bowl. Add breadcrumbs and 1 tablespoon chopped sage to drippings in skillet; stir over medium-high heat until breadcrumbs are almost crisp, 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl with pancetta. Cool (reserve skillet).
• Place yams on plate and microwave on high until very soft, 5 to 8 minutes per side, depending on size of yam. Transfer yams to work surface. Cut yams in half lengthwise; scoop out pulp and place in medium glass bowl. Discard skin. Add remaining 11/2 teaspoons chopped sage and 1 tablespoon butter to yams; mash until almost smooth. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Sprinkle fish fillets with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in same nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish fillets and cook until golden brown on outside and just opaque in center, 3 to 4 minutes per side. If necessary, rewarm yams in microwave. Divide mashed yams among 4 plates. Top each serving with 1 fish fillet, sprinkle generously with pancetta-sage breadcrumbs, and serve.

TANDOORI TILAPIA WITH SPICY SWEET POTATO MASH & TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Coat the tilapia fillets with the tandoori paste and set aside. Put the sweet potatoes, carrots and garlic in a large pan of salted water. Bring to the boil and cook for 10 mins or until tender. Drain well, then allow to steam-dry for a few mins. Add the chilli to the pan and mash everything together with some seasoning. Cover and keep warm.
• Heat the grill to high. Grill the tilapia for 8-10 mins or until cooked through. Meanwhile, mix the salad ingredients together and serve alongside the tilapia and mash.

TILAPIA WITH ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Place potatoes, bell pepper, garlic, oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in the prepared dish; toss to coat.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Add tomatoes. Place tilapia fillets on top of vegetables and sprinkle with remaining salt, pepper, and lemon zest. Continue to bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.
• Squeeze lemon juice over fish and serve.
