SPICY LOUISIANA TILAPIA FILLETS WITH SAUTEED VEGETABLE RELISH

Category: Fish and Seafood

Cooking spray
1 (8 oz) container refrigerated prechopped tomato, onion, and bell pepper mix
4 (6 oz) tilapia fillets
2 tbsp water
2 tsp Louisiana hot sauce
1 1/2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
1/2 tsp salt

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; coat pan with cooking spray. Add tomato mixture; saute 2 minutes. Remove from pan.

Coat pan and fillets with cooking spray; add fish to pan. Cook 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Turn fillets over; add tomato mixture to pan, spooning mixture over and around fillets. Cover and cook 5 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.

While fish cooks, combine 2 tbsp water, hot sauce, thyme, and salt in a small bowl.

Carefully remove fish and tomato mixture from pan; place on a serving platter. Reduce heat to medium; add hot sauce mixture and butter to pan. Cook until butter melts. Spoon butter mixture evenly over fish and tomato mixture. Serves 4
