Seafood and Sauce

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tilapia

    Season the tilapia fillets with Creole seasoning on both sides. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the tilapia for about 4-5 minutes per side or until cooked through and flaky.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Shrimp

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil if needed and sauté the shrimp over medium-high heat until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Cream Sauce

    In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and pour in the heavy cream. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and cook until the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Return the sautéed shrimp to the skillet and mix well.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Place the cooked tilapia on a serving plate, top with the shrimp and Parmesan cream sauce, and serve alongside grilled zucchini and rice pilaf.
