Ingredients
- 4 pieces tilapia fillets
- 2 medium ripe peaches
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
Directions
Step 1
Peel and dice the peaches into small pieces, and set them aside.
Step 2
Mince the garlic and chop the fresh cilantro finely.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, honey, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Set this sauce aside.
Step 4
Pat the tilapia fillets dry with a paper towel, and season both sides lightly with salt and black pepper.
Step 5
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
Add the tilapia fillets to the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork. Remove fillets from the skillet and set them on a plate.
Step 7
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 8
Add the diced peaches to the skillet and pour in the lime-honey sauce. Stir to coat the peaches evenly, and let them simmer for 2–3 minutes until slightly softened.
Step 9
Turn off the heat and stir in the chopped cilantro.
Step 10
Spoon the peach mixture generously over the cooked tilapia fillets, and serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as rice or steamed vegetables.
