Pan-Seared Tilapia with Soy Glaze

Ingredients

• 4 pieces tilapia fillets
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 teaspoon ginger
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
• 2 pieces green onions
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Cooking instructions

1. Prepare the glaze — In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, and black pepper until well combined.
2. Heat the pan — Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
3. Cook the tilapia — Add tilapia fillets to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
4. Apply the glaze — Pour the soy-honey glaze over the fillets in the pan, spooning it to coat the fish evenly. Cook for 1-2 more minutes to let the glaze thicken slightly.
5. Serve — Transfer the glazed tilapia to serving plates. Garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Serve warm.
