Tilapia with Honey-Scallion Dressing

Super fast and very tasty. I imagine the sauce would go well with other types of fish, too. I think it would work best with rice or rice noodles, as the magazine recommends. All family enjoyed it, and it definitely got extra points from me because of the ease and speed of preparation.

Dressing:

• 2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon bottled ground fresh ginger (such as Spice World)
• 1/4 teaspoon dark sesame oil

Fish:

• 1 tablespoon canola oil
• 4 (6-ounce) tilapia fillets
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

1. To prepare dressing, combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl, stirring well with a whisk.

2. To prepare fish, heat canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle fish evenly with salt and pepper. Add fish to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.

3. Drizzle each filet with 2 tablespoons of dressing.

4. As you eat it, figure out what you will do with all the time you now have since you didn’t spend all of it cooking.
