Sautéed Fish with Red Onions

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 ½ cups prediced red onions
  • ¼ cup cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 4 tilapia (snapper or swai) fillets (1 ½ lb; thawed)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro (coarsely chopped)

Steps

    1. 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. Stir in vinegar and sugar; cook 4–6 minutes or until onions are softened.
    2. Check fish for bones and place fish in pan (wash hands), moving onions to cover fish. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and cook about 15 minutes, without turning, and until 145°F (or flesh is opaque and flakes easily).
    3. Chop cilantro. Sprinkle over fish before serving.
