Tilapia and Roasted Red Pepper Skillet
The following recipe and photography was provided by Christina Musgrave of Tasting with Tina.
This super easy Tilapia and Roasted Red Pepper Skillet is frequently featured in my dinner rotation!
With fresh tilapia from Heinen’s Seafood Department, Heinen’s roasted red peppers and a light cream sauce, this dinner is easy, colorful, nutritious and delicious. It’s also a great option when meal prepping lunches or dinners.
Made in one pan and on the table in under 30 minutes, I recommend serving this dish on its own, with roasted veggies or over rice.
