Tilapia & Zucchini – My paleo-friendly dinner


I decided to try my hand at posting a “how-to” … starting with the dinner I just made!  This meal is totally paleo, if you’re into that, and if not – it’s nothing crazy, just tilapia & zucchini!

Pan-Seared Tilapia & Zucchini

What you need:

  • Coconut Oil
  • Tilapia fillet(s)
  • 1 whole zucchini
  • Salt
  • 1 egg (cage-free)

What to do:

Image

First, use a spoonful of coconut oil (paleo-approved and tasty) and heat it up in a pan.

Image

Next, take your fresh tilapia and salt both sides.

Image

And put it in said pan, on about medium heat.

Image

Flip the fillet(s) until the tilapia is white, through and through. Nothing worse than uncooked fish..

Image

While you are waiting on the tilapia, slice up your zucchini into thin pieces, about 1/4″ or less.

Image

Take your egg..

Image

And mix it in a bowl.

Image

Add the zucchini and coat it with the egg. Don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty!

Image

Pan-fry the zucchini. I usually start around medium heat, and then take it down a notch to make sure the egg doesn’t burn. Cook until tender.

Yum! Add a glass of wine and you are set 🙂
