All parts of the orange—juice, rind, and pulp—flavor the quickly cooked fish. Substitute brown, basmati, or jasmine rice, if you prefer. Ingredients:
3 oranges (about 1 pound) |
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, divided |
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided |
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided |
4 (6-ounce) tilapia fillets |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided |
2 cups hot cooked instant white rice |
Directions:
1. Grate 2 teaspoons orange rind. Peel and section oranges over a bowl, reserving 2 tablespoons juice. Chop sections. Combine rind, chopped orange, 2 tablespoons parsley, 5 teaspoons oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl; toss well.
2. Preheat oven to 400°.
3. Sprinkle fish evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place fish in an ovenproof skillet coated with remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Bake at 400° for 14 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
4. Combine 2 tablespoons reserved juice, remaining 2 tablespoons parsley, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and rice. Spoon 1/2 cup rice onto each of 4 plates; top each with 1 fillet and 1/4 cup salsa.
