Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tilapia fillets
  • 2 red bell peppers
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roast the red peppers until blackened, about 20 minutes. Peel and blend into a smooth sauce.
