Keep it Tight Tilapia


Satisfy your taste buds and set your metabolism on fire with this delicious recipe! 
Ingredients
• ¼ cup / 60 ml extra virgin olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
• 1 tsp / 5 ml paprika
• 1 tsp / 5 ml ginger
• 1 tsp / 5 ml fresh ground black pepper
• 1 tsp / 5 ml dried mustard
• 1 tsp / 5 ml oregano
• 1 tsp / 5 ml chili powder
• 4 tilapia filets, thawed
Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF.  Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl combine olive oil, garlic and seasonings.
  3. Dip each filet into the seasoning and place it on the baking sheet.
  4. Pour any remaining seasoning over the filets on the sheet and place the baking sheet in the oven.
  5. Bake for 10 minutes.




I served this last night with "fries".  Fries are zucchini strips with 2T olive oil, a tsp of salt and pepper in a 9x13 glass baking dish.  I roasted them for 15 minutes at 400 before I put the tilapia in, then for the additional 10 the fish was cooking.  YUMMY!  
The final result was a hit with everyone.  There were even requests from the three kids for more "fries!"  SUPER easy, and good for you too!
