Preparation

Step 1

Blanch green beans 1-2 min in large pot of boiling, salted water. Drain; set aside.

Dust tilapia with pan-searing flour. Pat off excess.

Heat olive oil in skillet on MEDIUM-HIGH, until oil faintly smokes; add fish.

Turn over when fish changes color one-quarter of the way up and seared side has turned paper bag-brown, 2-3 min. Reduce heat to MEDIUM.Cook 3-5 min, until internal temp reaches 120 degrees; check by inserting thermometer halfway into thickest part of fish.

Add basting oil and butter to pan. Swirl. Baste with spoon, 1-3 min, until internal temp reaches 130 degrees. Transfer to clean platter; let rest at least 2 min.

Add green beans, tomatoes, and lemon-dill butter or citrus soy sauce to pan; heat, stirring, 30 seconds. Serve over tilapia.


Chef Tip(s):
Keep Wegmans Frozen Tilapia on hand for easy family meals - it's an inexpensive, mild fish kids like and it pairs well with sauces.
