Hmmm.....how else can I serve tilapia!?

In an effort to eat a little healthier, I have stocked our freezer with a variety of fish, chicken and turkey.  We eat pork, but not very often and little to no beef.  Due to our hectic schedule, I need meals to be on the table and ready to eat as quickly as possible.  Tilapia seems to fit that bill.

After making tilapia at least once a week for the last 6 weeks, I decided to try a simpler solution.

Pan-seared spicy tilapia sandwiches, baked seasoned sweet potato fries and fruit.  Quick, simple, tasty and oh so easy!  

Pan-seared Spicy Tilapia

1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon jalapeno salt
1 tablespoon paprika
Hoagie Rolls
Roma tomato
Lettuce
Avocado
Spice Mayonnaise

Blend spices and season the fish.  In a hot pan, cook fish for approximately 3 minutes on each side (depending on thickness of fillet).  Once the fish is done, toast the rolls in the pan.  This will soak up all of the wonderful tasty bits from the pan.

Assemble: Spicy mayonnaise and fish on one side; lettuce, tomato and avocado on the other.

Dig in and Enjoy!
