# What You’ll Need:
→ Fish
01 - 4 tilapia fillets, about 5.3 oz each
02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
04 - 2 teaspoons dried Italian herbs
05 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
06 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
→ Rice
07 - 1 cup long-grain white rice
08 - 2 cups water
09 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
→ Vegetables
10 - 2 cups broccoli florets
11 - 2 carrots, peeled and sliced
12 - 1 tablespoon olive oil, optional
13 - Salt and pepper to taste
# How To Make:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with oil.
02 - Pat tilapia fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Brush both sides of each fillet generously with the herb mixture and arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
03 - Place baking sheet in preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
04 - In a saucepan, bring 2 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil. Add rice, reduce heat to low, cover with a lid, and simmer for 15 to 18 minutes until tender and liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and fluff rice gently with a fork.
05 - In a steamer basket set over simmering water, steam broccoli florets and carrot slices for 5 to 7 minutes until crisp-tender. Optionally, transfer to a bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
06 - Divide cooked rice evenly among four bowls. Top each portion with one tilapia fillet and a generous serving of steamed vegetables.
