This is very tasty, and quick enough for a weeknight. Serve it with fresh fruit and coleslaw on the side for a healthy supper. The recipe is adapted slightly from Cooking Light.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons yellow cornmeal
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
4 (6 ounce) tilapia fillets
4 teaspoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 tablespoon grated lime rind
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
4 (1 1/2 ounce) french rolls
8 slices tomatoes (1/4-inch-thick)
1 cup shredded red leaf lettuce
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler.
2. Combine the first 6 ingredients in a shallow dish. Rub 1 tsp of oil on each fish fillet. Dredge fish in cornmeal mixture.
3. Place fish on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Broil 7-10 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
4. Combine butter, rind, and juice in a small bowl; stir well.
5. Cut rolls in half and toast lightly. Spread butter mixture evenly over cut side of each roll. Place 1 fillet, 2 tomato slices, and 1/4 cup lettuce on each of 4 roll bottoms. Place top halves of rolls on sandwiches.
