Materials:
Mass | Weight | Volume | Number | Material | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
2 cloves | garlic, minced | ||||
1 bunch | greens, chopped | I used collards, but most greens should work well. | |||
1 tablespoon | lime juice | or lemon juice. I just prefer the flavor of lime. | |||
2 | tilapia fillets | about 4 ounces each | |||
1/4 cup | Parmesan cheese, grated | ||||
2 tablespoons | capers, drained | ||||
3-4 ounces | 2 servings | pasta | I used a combo of gemelli and cavatappi. |
Methods:
- Gather all materials.
- Cook pasta following package directions.
- Heat garlic in a bit of oil until fragrant.
- Add in greens, and cook until slightly wilted.
- Meanwhile, cook fish. I just greased a pan and cooked up the fish with a bit of pepper. Grilling is another nice option.
- Mix cooked greens and pasta, and then top with tilapia (or mix in like we did).
- Drizzle with lemon or lime juice, sprinkle on a bit of Parmesan, and then top with capers.
