Italian Tilapia







Ingredients:
4 Tilapia loins
2 Tbs Olive oil
1/2 large onion (diced)
5 button mushrooms (sliced)
1-2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 Italian zucchini (sliced)
salt and pepper to taste
1 tsp. dried basil
1 Tbs Olive oil
1 can Fire Roasted diced tomatoes
Sprinkling of Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 375. In a 13X9 pan drizzle the 1 Tbs of Olive oil in the pan. Add in the tilapia loins. Salt and pepper fish. In a medium saucepan add the 2 Tbs of Olive oil, diced onions, mushrooms. Saute them for about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and zucchini and saute in extra 2 minutes. Salt and pepper this. Next add the basil and Fire Roasted tomatoes. Spoon the mixture of ingredients onto the fish.
Cook in the oven for 15 minutes or until fish is flaky.
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
The Results:
This is one of my concoctions on a night I couldn't think of anything to make. It was delicious. I love zucchini and mushrooms so they got thrown in the pot. My boys gobbled it up and my oldest son told me this is good chicken mom. He didn't care if it was fish or chicken as long as he could dip it in ranch. Whatever, he ate all his dinner. I served this with a side salad and some rice. Enjoy!
