Introduction

A great way to use fresh summer veggies from the farmers' market! Your plate will look like an artist's rendering with so many vibrant colors from the green okra, red tomato, and yellow corn. This will yield a hearty portion but it is relatively low in fat and total calories. A great way to use fresh summer veggies from the farmers' market!

Ingredients

    Tilapia Filet
    Salt
    Pepper
    Garlic
    Dried basil or other herbs
    Olive Oil
    Tomatoes
    Okra
    Corn
    Onion
    Zucchini

Directions

TILAPIA
Season the tilapia fillet with salt, pepper, and herbs (all to taste and/or optional).
Option 1: Heat non-stick pan to medium high heat and cook fillet for about 3 minutes on each side, more or less time depending on thickness.
Option 3: If using a pan without non-stick coating, use at least 1 tsp of olive oil and follow directions for option 1.
Option 2: Heat an indoor nonstick grill (e.g. George Foreman grill) and place fillet on hot grill for about 5 minutes.
Fillet is done when it flakes easily. Remove from pan and let rest.
SUMMER VEGETABLES

Cook until slightly tender. Add zucchini and corn. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add tomatoes. Taste for seasoning, add more salt if desired. Serve vegetables atop fillet.

    Very Good
    Pretty tasty though I added some smart balance butter and a tablespoon of cornstarch to vegetables. Next time I will substitute red pepper for tomatoes, just did not feel the acid added anything to the mix - 3/13/16
