BROILED TILAPIA AND EGGPLANT WITH MOROCCAN PESTO



Broiled Tilapia and Eggplant with Moroccan Pesto image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Kosher salt
1/2 cup whole-wheat couscous
1 clove garlic, smashed
1 cup packed fresh cilantro, plus more for topping
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Finely grated zest of 1/2 lemon, plus wedges for serving
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
2 Japanese eggplants (about 8 ounces each), halved lengthwise
Freshly ground pepper
4 tilapia fillets (6 to 8 ounces each)
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Bring 3/4 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil in a small saucepan. Put the couscous in a medium heatproof bowl and stir in the boiling water. Cover the bowl and set aside until the couscous is tender, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, puree the garlic, cilantro, 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1/4 cup water in a blender. Pulse in the lemon zest, cumin, coriander, paprika and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Score the eggplant flesh in a 1/2-inch crosshatch pattern and place cut-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet. Brush with 2 tablespoons of the cilantro pesto and season with salt and pepper. Broil the eggplant, without turning, until browned and softened, 10 to 14 minutes.
  • Lay the tilapia on another foil-lined baking sheet. Brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil until the fish is cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Brush each fillet with about 1 teaspoon pesto.
  • Divide the fish, couscous and eggplant among plates. Mix the yogurt with 1 tablespoon water and drizzle on the eggplant. Top the fish with the remaining pesto and more cilantro. Serve with lemon wedges.

PESTO TILAPIA



Pesto Tilapia image

Simple, fast and SO delicious. This is my favorite fish recipe and I always get requests for the recipe!

Provided by GreenChile

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 flounder fillets or 5 cod fish fillets
salt & pepper, to taste
1/2 cup pesto sauce
1 (15 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes, drained
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place foil on a cookie sheet. Place fish on the foil and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Top with pesto, tomatoes and then cheese (in order).
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until fish flakes with fork.
  • *Note: I don't care for pesto except in this recipe. To prevent wasting the rest of the pesto in the jar, I make one recipe for dinner and freeze the ingredients to have another day. Just place each of the ingredients (except salt & pepper) in its own quart-size freezer bag, then place all in a gallon-size freezer bag along with directions and freeze. When ready to make, just thaw completely and follow the above directions to prepare.
