Tilapia with Oranges, Tomatoes and Toasted Garlic Recipe
Total Time: 15 minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients
1/2 cup whole-wheat couscous
1 large orange
3 tsp olive oil
4 small tilapia fillets (about 1½ lb)
Salt substitute and pepper
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 1/2-in. piece fresh ginger, very thinly sliced
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
2 scallions, thinly sliced
Preparation
Cook the couscous according to package directions. Cut away the peel and white pith of the orange. Working over a bowl, cut the orange into segments, adding them to the bowl along with any juices.
Meanwhile, heat 1 tsp oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Season the tilapia with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper and cook until opaque throughout, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
Wipe out the skillet and heat the remaining 2 tsp oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and cook, tossing occasionally, until beginning to break down, about 3 minutes. Add the oranges and any juices and gently toss to heat through. Serve with the tilapia and couscous and sprinkle with the scallions.
