Basics: Eggs

 

Ah, the incredible, edible egg. Such a versatile little capsule of deliciousness. Crack one open, and the possibilities are practically endless. Boil ‘em, scramble ‘em, fry ‘em, poach ‘em… Yeah, I know. I sound like Bubba again. I’ll stop… for now. =)

Garlic Tilapia with Lemon Caper Butter

So I was looking for a meal I could whip up fast that was bursting with flavor. Enter tilapia: a versatile, easy to cook fish that goes with just about anything and satisfies that craving for something fish-y. The best part of this recipe is that the only forethought it needs is to defrost the tilapia if it's frozen, but even that's not an issue if you get it fresh on your way home. I love how the tartness of the lemon wakes up the taste buds, and the zingy brine from the capers gives 'em a serious flavor kick. The butter is, well, BUTTER, and there's no such thing as too much garlic. My apron says so. =)
