Sauteéd Talapia on mixed greens

Cheerio and happy new year to all! New Years resolutions have been made and now it is time to keep them! Mine was to write more, cook more and to actually continue the blog. Thus I have revamped the design and have been slaving at the stove. Now that the christmas season is over, it is time to get rid of the extra pounds and look after our health again. For me, that means tons of veggies and protein. Thus I am here to present you with this lovely bit of food porn.

You will need:
1 Filet of fresh Talapia
Salt
Pepper
1 Tsp Molasses
1 Tblsp low sodium soy sauce
3 Radishes
2 Cups of mixed leafy greens (I like swiss chard, arugula etc.)
1/2 Half of a medium sized Zucchini
2-3 Cherry Tomatoes
Balsamic Glaze or Crema di Balsamico

 Mix together the molasses and soy sauce, so you have a nice marinade going on. If you want to be daring, add some chili flakes for extra spice. Next salt and pepper the talapia and spoon the marinade on the fish. Let it sit for no more than 10 minutes, as the flavors are very strong and talapia does not have a lot of flavor on its own. Meanwhile slice the radishes, tomatoes and zucchini. Put the leafy greens onto a plate and arrange the sliced radishes and tomatoes on the plate.

On medium heat, fry up the zucchini with a little bit of olive oil and salt and pepper. About two to three minutes. The zucchini should be warm but not soggy. Remove from the pan and arrange on the plate. Finally over medium to hot heat sauteé the talapia for about 5-7 minutes. Frying fish always goes very fast, and it should not be too well done. Drape the cooked talapia on the plate and finally sprinkle the whole thing with the balsamic glaze, salt and pepper.

Bon Appetite!
