Method
Prepare Roasted Peppers
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Place red bell peppers on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until the skins are charred and blistered.
- Remove from the oven, cover with foil, and let them steam for 10 minutes. Peel off the skins, remove seeds, and chop.
Make the Sauce
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the roasted peppers, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth using a blender or immersion blender.
- Stir in chopped basil and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Cook the Tilapia
- In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Season tilapia fillets with salt and pepper.
- Cook the fillets for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve
- Plate the tilapia fillets and generously spoon the roasted pepper sauce over the top. Garnish with additional basil if desired.
