Spicy Pasta With Tilapia Recipes

SPICY FISH AND OLIVE SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package directions; drain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water. Toss the spaghetti with some oil and set aside.
• Add the oil, garlic, 3/4 teaspoon salt and crushed red pepper to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the tomatoes, reserved pasta water and oregano; bring to a high simmer and cook until the sauce thickens but is still loose, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Add the fish and olives and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fish is cooked through and flaky, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the spaghetti and parsley. Toss to combine and divide among four bowls.

SPICY PASTA WITH TILAPIA

Steps:

• Toss the tilapia, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon of the garlic and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the remaining garlic and 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until the garlic starts to soften, about 30 seconds. Add the wine and simmer until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, 1/4 cup basil and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs.
• When the pasta is almost done, add the tilapia to the skillet with the tomato sauce and simmer, stirring gently, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Stir in the parsley and the remaining 1/4 cup basil; season with salt. Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce. Divide among bowls and top with more basil.

PAN SEARED LEMON TILAPIA WITH PARMESAN PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil over medium heat, stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the macaroni uncovered, stirring occasionally, until it is cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle both sides of the tilapia fillets with lemon juice, oregano, basil, cilantro, salt, and pepper, and lay the fillets in the heated skillet, making sure they don't touch. Sear the fillets for 2 to 4 minutes on each side, until the fish is golden brown on the outside, and opaque and flaky inside.
• Return the hot, cooked macaroni to the saucepan, and stir in 1 tablespoon of olive oil to coat the pasta. Sprinkle on the Parmesan cheese, stir to mix, and stir in 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, the garlic powder, basil, oregano, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Divide the pasta between two plates, and top each with a tilapia fillet.

• Toss the fish with bread crumbs, green onions, egg, lemon juice, feta cheese, garlic powder, dill, and hot sauce.
• Form patties with your hand and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
