Pancho Villa Baked Tilapia
You can never have too many main course recipes, so give Pancho Vill If you have fillets tilapia, juice of lime, lime, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. To use up the lime you could follow this main course with the Lime Angel Food Cake with Lime Glaze and Pistachios as a dessert. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes around 35 minutes. It is a good option if you're following a gluten free, dairy free, and primal diet.
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat one side of 4 (8x10 inch) pieces of aluminum foil with olive oil.
Center each fillet on a foil square. Spoon a generous amount of diced tomatoes with juices over fish.
Sprinkle with lime juice and cilantro. Position 2 slices of lime on top of each fillet. Close and seal foil packets, and place on a baking tray.
Bake in preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine
Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Tilapia. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 26 dollars per bottle.
Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio
A pale straw yellow. Clean, crisp fragrance with intense yet elegant hints of quince. Fresh, harmonious fruit set off by slight sweetness with a long finish full of delicate, tangy flavor.
