5 oz pre-sliced red onions (1 1/4 cups)
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar
4 tilapia (snapper or basa) fillets (1 1/2 lb; thawed)
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro (coarsely chopped)
Steps
- Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2-3 minutes. Place oil in pan, then add garlic and onions; cook 1–2 minutes to soften garlic.
