coriander-crusted-tilapia-with-brown



  • coriander-crusted tilapia with brown rice and vegetable (slightly adapted from Real Simple Magazine, March 2017)
  • 6 tilapia loins (I buy them at Costco frozen then thaw them)
  • 2 tablespoons ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cups whole grain jasmine rice, cooked and hot
  • 3 cups loosely packed arugula and spinach


How to Make It

  • Pat tilapia dry with paper towels. Combine coriander, pepper and 3/4 teaspoon of the salt in a small bowl. Season tilapia all over with the mixture.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tilapia and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook until opaque, about 1 minute.
  • Simultaneously, heat a smaller skillet with 1 tablespoon oil.. Add carrots and green onions and cook until almost tender. Add broth and lemon juice and cooked rice. Cook until hot. Add greens and cook until wilted.
  • Serve tilapia with brown rice and vegetables.
