pecan-rosemary crusted tilapia / roasted broccoli / salad with cranberry vinaigrette

Contents of your meal kit:

tilapia fillets
broccoli
pecan-rosemary crust
cranberry vinaigrette base
baby romaine
goat cheese

Equipment needed: baking sheet, shallow dish, large nonstick skillet

Finishing steps:

  1. Preheat oven to 425.
  2. On a baking sheet, toss broccoli with olive oil, salt & pepper. Once oven has heated, roast for 10 minutes, then toss, and roast another 5 minutes if needed.
  3. Meanwhile, rub fish with a little olive oil and season both sides lightly with salt & pepper. Put pecan-rosemary crust in a shallow dish, and press fish into the crust, turning to coat both sides.
  4. Heat a nonstick skillet (large enough so the fish won’t be crowded) over med-high heat. Add enough olive oil to coat the pan. When oil is hot, add fish, reduce heat to medium, and cook 3-5 minutes, until golden brown. Gently turn fish with a spatula, and cook an additional 3-5 minutes, depending on thickness. Test fish for doneness, then remove from heat.
  5. Pour cranberry vinaigrette base into the bottom of your salad bowl and add an equal amount of olive oil. Whisk or mix with a fork to combine.   If this looks like too much dressing, remove some before adding the greens. Toss gently and season with salt & pepper to taste. Crumble goat cheese over the top.
  6. Enjoy pecan-rosemary crusted tilapia with broccoli and salad on the side.
