Ingredients

    2 tilapia fillets
    2 cups of cooked pasta
    1 tomato, diced
    1/2 onion, diced
    2 tbsp heavy whipping cream
    2/3 cup water
    1 tbsp olive oil
    1 tbsp flour
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1tbsp paprika
    1 tsp parsley
    salt to taste
    pepper to taste
    cayenne powder to taste

Directions

In a deep pan, saute the garlic, onions, and tomato with the olive oil on medium heat.
Once the onions are soft, add the flour, paprika, cayenne, pepper, and salt, stir until the onions and tomatoes are evenly coated.
While stirring, add in the cream and water and bring up to a simmer.
Once the sauce is simmering, add the two fillets. The liquid should just cover the top of the fish.
Cook the tilapia at a low simmer until the meat is flaky and completely white.
Allow the fish to cool just slightly before serving over a bead of pasta. Sprinkle with parsley and serve!

Makes two very filling servings.
