Ingredients
-
Tilapia filets, 3
Panko Bread Crumbs, 6 Tbs
Zest of Fresh Lemon, 1
Sea Salt
Cracked Pepper
Cayenne Pepper
Cooking Spray
Hearts of Romaine, 1-2
Fresh Cilantro
Sliced Almonds
Cucumber, striped, sliced
Orange Bell Pepper, sliced
Feta Cheese Crumbles
Directions
Clean, cut or tear and spin lettuce. Toss with cilantro, sliced almonds and cucumber slices.
Plate tossed salad and arrange bell pepper slices and feta crumbles over the top. Set aside in a cool place.
In small bowl mix bread crumbs and lemon zest, set aside.
Rinse filets and let excess water drip off, don’t pat dry (his will help the breading). Season fish lightly or to taste on both sides with sea salt, cracked pepper and cayenne.
Sprinkle about a tablespoon of the zest crumb mixture on each side of the filets. Gently rub or pat crumbs to help adhere to the fish.
Preheat ridged grill pan over medium high heat. Spray with cooking spray. Gently lay filets in pan. Let filets cook until nicely golden brown on both sides, turning carefully and gently only once. (Check to insure fish is cooked through inserting a fork or corner of spatula and gently twist a little. Fish should flake yet be moist)
Serve filets atop plated salad with fresh vinaigrette in a carafe or creamer/ boat.
Serving Size: Makes 3
