Tilapia with Bacon/Lemon Cream Sauce, Jalapeno Whipped Sweet Potatoes and Apple Brussel Sprouts

Posted on by allycmiller
LOVED the sauce creation, and the sides were great success too!

Really enjoyed this dish tonight.

Tilapia: 6 oz tilapia – cooked on the stove with a small pat of butter, salt and pepper

Sauce (enough for 1 person):

  • 1/4 slice of bacon
  • 2 slices of onion, diced very thin
  • very small dab of butter (see the Sweet potato recipe… I just took some of the bacon/onion from that)
  • Add some garlic and saute all
  • Then add lemon juice (I squeezed in juice from half a small lemon)
  • Once bacon, onions are ready, add 1/8 cup whipping cream
  • Use small whisk to combine all and thicken
  • I also added a couple dashes of parsley flakes
  • (I see most sauces call for white wine… didn’t have any, but this worked well anyway)

Whipped Jalapeno Sweet Potatoes.

Followed the recipe on Food.com, but I scooped out the cubes of sweet potato and only a small amount of the broth… put in the blender.   This kept the concistency thick enough to add to plate (without using a bowl)

Apple Brussel Sprouts.
