Quick Tilapia in Roasted Pepper Sauce: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe

  • Total Time: 25 minute

Ingredients

– 4 tilapia fillets
– 2 red bell peppers
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Preparing Quick Tilapia in Roasted Pepper Sauce is straightforward. Just follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Peppers: Cut the red bell peppers in half, removing the seeds and stems. Place them cut-side down on a baking sheet.
3. Roast the Peppers: Roast the peppers in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until the skins are charred. Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
4. Sauté Garlic: In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
5. Blend the Sauce: Peel the skins off the cooled peppers and transfer them to a blender or food processor. Add the sautéed garlic, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth.
6. Cook the Tilapia: In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if necessary. Season the tilapia fillets with salt and pepper on both sides. Sauté them over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flaky.
7. Combine: Pour the roasted pepper sauce over the cooked tilapia in the skillet. Allow it to simmer together for an additional 2-3 minutes.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top before serving.
9. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your delicious tilapia with roasted pepper sauce right away!
