Red and Green Tilapia


Tilapia Filets (two)
1 Tbs. Olive Oil
1/2 tsp. Red Pepper Flakes
Baby Spinach
Asparagus tips (10 to 12)
Scallions (2)
Lime (1/2)
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
Foil


Here's how to do it:

Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees

In a small bowl mix together 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Microwave for 30 seconds to make the chile oil.

Take two sheets of foil and flatten out on the counter. Place an equal amount of spinach in the middle of both pieces of foil. Also put the asparagus tips on top of the spinach.

Place the tilapia filets on the top of the spinach and asparagus. Top each piece with the chopped scallions and the oil with red pepper. Cut the lime in half and squeeze the lime juice on top of the fillets. Season with salt and pepper and seal the foil. Seal at the top and sides and it will steam the filets as well as bake them.

Place in the oven for about 10 to 12 minutes.

Serve with rice or a ceasar salad.
