Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F (~177 C).
- Warm oil in a large skillet. Add onion and garlic and sauté for one minute.
- Add the four tilapia fillets, season with pepper to taste and cook 2-3 minutes per side.
- Break up the cooked fish inside the skillet with the help of a couple of forks.
- Incorporate potatoes, carrots, olives, capers, salt, peppers, paprika, parsley and vinegar with the fish.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes more. Taste for salt. Turn heat off and set aside.
- Place 1 puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured, clean surface (leave the other sheet in the fridge), and using a floured rolling pin, roll the puff pastry sheet to 12 x 12 inches.
- Cut 9 circles with the round mold (you can also use a round lid or the rim of a glass). Put the excess pastry in a plastic bag and refrigerate.
- Fill each empanada with a teaspoon of the delicious fish filling. Fold pastry over the filling, and, with your fingers, press the edges of the pastry until it is sealed. Finally, use a fork to crimp the edges. Make a small slit on the top of each empanada to allow vapor to escape and place empanadas on a parchment paper covered baking sheet.
- Repeat the process for a total of 9.
- Take the second puff pastry sheet from refrigerator and make another 9. Add the excess pastry to the excess pastry from the first sheet, knead for a few minutes, and roll the pastry again. You will get another 4-6 empanadas.
- Whisk egg and brush each empanada. Bake for 20-22 minutes or until pastry is golden brown.
GRILLED TILAPIA WITH TOMATO-OLIVE TAPENADE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Place tilapia fillets on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil.
- Bake tilapia in the preheated oven until opaque and easily flaked with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Combine chopped tomatoes, olives, onion, and capers in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes begin to break down and tapenade flavors are combined, 5 to 10 minutes. Spoon tapenade over baked fillets.
