Ingredients:

• 4 5-7 oz tilipa filets
• 1 medium orange
• 2 limes
• 1 lemon
• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 cup white wine
• 4 tsp Grey Poupon spread
• Dash salt
• Dash pepper
• 1 1/2 tsp thyme
• 1 tsp rosemary, crushed
• 1 tsp parsley

Method

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Season fish on both sides with thyme and rosemary, salt and pepper. Add zest of 1/2 orange, both limes and lemons into same bowl. Spread Grey Poupon onto tilapia, one side only, 1 tsp per filet. Then place that side into zest. In a saute pan heat olive oil on medium heat, place fish zest side down in pan, sear for about 5 minutes. Flip over and sear other side for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and place on a lined baking sheet bake for 7-10 more minutes, until fish reaches an internal temp of 145 degrees. In saute pan deglaze pan with white wine and add juices of 1/2 orange both limes and lemons. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Place sauce on top of fish when serving. Cut rest of orange in slices, place around plate and sprinkle with parsley.

Notes: I recommend Chardonnay but each wine will add its own twist. Serve with any vegetable and goes great with couscous.

Number of servings: 4
