Breaded Fish Fillet

First time we had fish this whole year! Once again, I walked into the house and dinner was almost done cooking :)

MAIN DISH panko-breaded tilapia fillets (Trader Joe's) 

SIDE DISH pasta with traditional marinara sauce topped with sauteed onions and a side of salad topped with onions and beef steak tomatoes

DANKNESS FACTOR 7.5/10

COMMENTS/TIPS
     Even though they're frozen, the fillets are cooked in the oven, so it turns out to be super crunchy and perfect. The fish is very flavorful and rich, but it's 360 calories a piece! (if you're counting calories like I am). Also, next time you're at Trader Joe's buy the beef steak tomatoes. They really are thick and beefy, and have a nice amount of sweetness to them.
     It was nice to eat some fish for once. There were parts that were really crispy and others that were more chewy. Next time, I would probably cook it a bit longer to infuse more crunch. Once again, another cheap great Trader Joe's frozen item.


So we watched 127 Hours the other day. Go watch it; it's just so intense and the editing is really clever.
