Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon butter
2 cups sliced baby portobello mushrooms (cremini)
1/2 cup sliced scallions
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 pint heavy cream
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Salt and black pepper
5 cups milk
1 cup quick-cooking grits
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 large bunch broccoli, sliced lengthwise (with stalks and florets intact)
1 bunch whole carrots, tops removed, sliced lengthwise
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper
6 (6-ounce) tilapia fillets
1/3 cup Jamaican jerk seasoning marinade

Steps:

  • Mushroom Scallion Sauce: Melt butter in a large saute pan. Saute mushrooms and scallions for about 3 minutes. Stir in wine and heavy cream. Season with garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Stir until sauce thickens slightly. Keep warm until ready to serve.
  • Grits: Bring milk to a boil. Gradually whisk in grits, butter, salt, and pepper. Stir constantly for about 3 to 5 minutes until grits thicken to desired consistency. Keep warm until ready to serve.
  • Grilled Broccoli and Carrots: Heat grill to medium. Toss broccoli and carrots in olive oil and season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Grill vegetables for about 6 minutes or until tender, turning them once halfway through. If room allows, grill tilapia at same time.
  • Tilapia: Heat grill to medium. Rinse and dry fillets and then rub with jerk seasoning. Grill tilapia for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove from heat.
  • Plate entree by spooning grits on center of plate. Lay tilapia on top of grits. Lay the carrot slices on top of fish in a criss-cross manner and place broccoli stalk on the side of fish. Top with mushroom scallion sauce and serve immediately.

The tilapia was a bit bland for my taste, but the grits and sauce were delicious. I would recommend adding some extra seasoning to the tilapia before cooking.
