The best way to bring a zing to your fish! Sweet & Sour Tilapia is a burst of sass and a dash of sweet!
I am always looking for ways to add something special to tilapia. It’s such a juicy perfect fish to make! Tilapia has just always been one of my favorites! I had some homemade sweet & sour sauce left over from my Cauliflower Nuggets so I decided to add it to the tilapia!
Surprise! Ahhh-mazing! Check it out!
Add the tilapia to a heated oiled pan.
Thinly slice some carrots, bell pepper, and onion. Gently saute until tender.
Mix the vegetables in with the sweet and sour sauce and scoop a portion onto the cooked tilapia.
Zing, Zang, and Bang!
