For me an easy dinner ideally would be a one pot meal.I usually prepare one pot meals at least once a week to save time and not worry about cooking anything else on the side.I take inspiration from the various rice dishes from across the globe for example the Paella, Risotto or the Indian Pulao and use the ingredients on hand.In this case I've prepared a Tilapia Pulao that cooks in about 20 minutes and comes out delicious every time!
I've flavored the rice with Indian spices and add the fish about 10 minutes before the rice is done.The flavors in the rice flavor the fish and the whole dish smells wonderful.An easy dinner, perfect for busy weeknights~
