Tilapia Filets

During this incredible heat wave we are having, the last thing I want to do is to turn on my electric stove or oven. This is a good time to use a crockpot, a microwave or even that George Foreman grill you got for Christmas.

Ingredients:

    * Cooking spray
    * 1/4 cup lime juice
       plus a little extra for brushing onto fish
    * 4 (6-ounce) Tilapia fillets
    * Salt and freshly ground black pepper
    * 1?2 teaspoon garlic powder
    * 1?3 cup light mayonnaise
    * 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish, or more to taste
    * 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
    * 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
    * 1 teaspoon crushed cilantro

Process:

Mix all ingredients together and let stand while cooking fish.

Spray the cooking dish and brush lime juice on both sides of the tilapia. Microwave on high for 1 minute per fillet or cook in George Foreman grill for 2 minutes and turn and cook one more minute. Overcooking causes the fish to be dry.
