Make
- Preheat oven to 425F (232C) degrees.
- Place tilapia onto a sheet pan. Sprinkle second part of spice mix over fillets. Bake in the oven for 8 to 12 minutes.
- While fish is baking, heat a skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat. Add broccoli, sweet potatoes, and water with a sprinkle of salt. The water will help veggies cook faster without burning. You can also pop them in the microwave for ~2 minutes as well. Saute veggies in pan for 4 to 6 minutes.
- Add in vinaigrette, and toss until vegetables are cooked through. Season to taste with more salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper right out of the oven. Serve with lemon wedges and enjoy with veggie saute.
