Serves/Makes: 4
Ready in: < 30 minutes
- 1 1/2 pound tilapia fillets
- 1/4 cup chopped celery
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1/4 cup seeded and chopped red bell pepper
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons flour
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon dried tarragon
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the celery, onion, and red bell pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are soft. Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, tarragon, and basil. Mix well. Add the milk and cook for 1 minutes, stirring constantly until the sauce begins to thicken. Stir the cheese into the sauce and cook, stirring, until the cheese has melted (do not let the sauce boil or it may curdle or separate). Place the tilapia in a 12x8 baking dish. Evenly spoon the cheese sauce over the fish. Place the baking dish in the oven and bake at 425 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serve hot.
