Making this fish marinade dinner is so easy and is always so delicious. We often vary the kind of fish and marinade that we use, but have had very good luck recently with tilapia from Trader Joe's and we have always enjoyed their yellow curry as well. The accompanying carb and green will also vary, but ultimately it doesn't matter. It's a simply, complete, delicious meal that definitely satisfies us both.
Fish Marinade
1.5 lbs fish fillets (we used frozen Tilapia from TJs)
Marinade (we used 1/2 a container of TJs yellow curry)
Black pepper
Place your fish (thawed if necessary) in a glass baking dish or a foil lined baking pan and cover with the curry of your choice. Season the top of the fish with some ground black pepper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Bake at 450 F until cooked through and the fish is flaky. I usually test by inserting a knife into the thickest part of the fillet. If the knife glides in with no resistance, you're done!
Cous Cous with pine nuts
1.5 cups water
1 tbsp olive oil
Cumin
Zatar
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Salt
Pepper
Cumin
Smoked paprika
Chili powder
1.5 cups cous cous
1/2 cup pine nuts
In a medium sized pot, bring to a boil the water, oil, and all of the spices. I add the spices to my own taste/desire, but I'd guesstimate 1-2 tsp per spice. Once the water has boiled, stir in the cous cous, turn off the heat, and let sit with the lid on it for at least 5 minutes. Fluff the cous cous with a fork. Meanwhile, toast the pine nuts in a small saute pan until browned. Stir in the pine nuts to the cous cous after they've been fluffed.
Green Beans
1 cup of green beans
Salt
Pepper
Balsamic vinegar
Cook the green beans until tender in a medium sized pot of boiling water. Drain, return to pot, and season with the remaining ingredients.
