Joshua's Favorite Tilapia With Jasmine R




Source of Recipe


My own creation


Recipe Introduction


We eat this at least 3 times a week.I call this Joshua's favortie Tilapia, because my husband (like me) could eat this 7 nights a week if we could. This is the easiest way to cook Tilapia, and if you are watching those calories then you need not worry this is extremely low fat, oh and did I mention TO DIE FOR !!!



List of Ingredients




cover bottom of pan with enough fat-free Italian salad dressing (I use Wishbone)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper (black)
1/4 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1/4 teaspoon cumin
2 1/2 cups water
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
1 cup jasmine rice (uncooked)


Recipe



Pour your dressing straight from the bottle into the pan, I usually make sure the bottom is covered but not too much, I gave aprox measures here.
Place the fillets on top of the dressing in the pan. Srpinkle with all 4 seasonings (all the measurments I gave are aprox). I usually just sprinkle a generous amount on each fillet. Don't leave out the cumin it is a wonderful addition to the fish.
Saute the fillets on med-low heat aprox 4-5 minutes each side tillfish flakes easy with a fork.
While the fish is slowley cooking, cook the rice,using 2 1/2 cups water and 1 cup rice, with butter, bring to a boil and simmer 15 minutes on low.
Serve the fillet on top of the Jasmine rice. I will usually add more s&p and cumin according to my taste. .
