Add a little health, spice, and flavor to a plain white fish.
Tilapia with Chorizo and Queso Fresco
http://www.fox2127.com/story/27904265/tilapia-with-chorizo-and-queso-fresco
4 tilapia filets, thawed
8 ounces chorizo Sausage
1 clove of garlic, minced
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
fresh chopped cilantro as needed
4 ounces queso fresco
2 avocados, sliced
salt and pepper to taste.
Season fish filets and broil until just done. Should take about 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Brown the chorizo, drain off the fat and hold the sausage warm. Add the garlic and lemon juice and reduce down by half. Turn off the heat and add in the butter and cooked sausage and swirl until the butter has melted completely. Season with pepper and cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning and salt if needed. Plate the fish and spoon the sauce over top. Garnish with sliced avocado, additional chopped cilantro, and crumbled queso fresco.
Notes:
You can make this dish with any fish you like. Flounder, mahi-mahi, and grouper are great options.
We served this with roasted zucchini and black beans, quinoa, and brown rice pilaf.
