Yes, another tilapia recipe. Can you tell we like to stock up on frozen tilapia? I love to have tilapia on hand in the freezer because it makes for a quick, healthy dinner on nights when a more elaborate dinner just isn't possible. In fact, the day I made this, I hadn't even planned it ahead of time. In the spare five minutes I had before rushing out the door for work, I checked my "seafood" folder in my google reader to find this recipe, transferred some tilapia from the freezer to the refrigerator, and breathed a sigh of relief knowing I could come home to a thirty minute meal (essential when we work late and return home starving!).

This was great. I love when a recipe takes simple ingredients and transforms them into a dish this tasty! While this tilapia marinated and then cooked, I threw some zucchini pancakes together on the side to make a light meal before we ran out the door to our next activity.
