Tilapia in Roasted Pepper Sauce is a delightful and nutritious seafood dish that combines the mild flavor of tilapia with the rich, smoky taste of roasted red peppers. This easy-to-prepare recipe is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or an impressive meal for company. By blending the freshly roasted peppers with garlic, olive oil, and lemon juice, you’ll create a vibrant sauce that perfectly complements the tender, flaky tilapia fillets.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tilapia fillets (about 6 ounce each)
  • 2 large red bell peppers
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

1. 1. Preheat your oven to 425°F.

2. 2. Place the red bell peppers on a baking sheet and roast them for 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and blistered.

3. 3. Remove the peppers from the oven and place them in a bowl. Cover the bowl with foil and let the peppers steam for 10 minutes.

4. 4. In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted peppers, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.

5. 5. Season the tilapia fillets with salt and pepper.

6. 6. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the tilapia fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

7. 7. Pour the roasted pepper sauce over the cooked tilapia fillets and let simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Notes

Serve immediately with a side of fluffy white rice, creamy mashed potatoes, or a fresh vegetable medley.
