1 large sweet potato, cut into fries (or 2 medium)

1 broccoli head, cut into florets

1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (or juice of 2 limes)

1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro

2 tablespoons water

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoons red chili flakes, in order to taste

1/2 teaspoon chili powder

2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves, for garnish

1 small bird-eye pepper, sliced for garnish, optional

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (210°C). Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.

2. Whisk together 2 tablespoons organic olive oil, water, garlic, lime juice, honey, chili flakes, chili powder, cumin and cilantro in a little bowl.

3. Place sweet potato fries and broccoli within a layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Stir in 2 tablespoons coconut oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste, and mix well. Make some space for your white fish fillets and place tilapia inside reserved spaces. Brush fish while using chili-lime mixture.

4. Bake until fish flakes easily having a fork and the broccoli begin to crisp through to the edges and have softened, about 20 - 25 minutes. Serve the baked tilapia garnished with cilantro, sliced chili peppers and lime wedges, if desired. Enjoy!

Note: Tilapia is usually a versatile and mild fish, but sometimes is comes with a off-flavor that some cooks would call muddy”. Don't hesitate to go heavy on spices since it will lower this off-flavor and improve the taste of the fish.
