One Skillet Tilapia Veracruz

Tilapia Veracruz is a flavorful Mexican-inspired dish featuring tender tilapia simmered in a zesty tomato sauce with olives, capers, and peppers. Perfect for an easy and delicious weeknight dinner!

I have the perfect dinner recipe for you today which is a great quick and delicious meal for the middle of the week – One Skillet Tilapia Veracruz. It’s also Paleo. It takes less than 30 minutes to make and most ingredients I use are standard pantry staples. This One-Skillet Tilapia Veracruz is a healthy Mexican dish with wonderful flavors. Its taste is very similar to a lot of Mediterranean meals – pretty much the same ingredients – tomatoes, peppers, onion, garlic, olives, oregano and I also added some jalapeno peppers. It’s only 1 Tbsp jalapeno peppers, and they are cooked. I couldn’t even tell it was spicy, it just adds a nice flavor, so it’s kid approved.

Ingredients:
  • 3 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup tomato sauce
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ cup black pitted olives, pitted and halfed
  • 1 Tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained
  • 1 Tablespoon jalapeño pepper slices, chopped
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • 1 Tablespoon oregano
  • salt and ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 tilapia filets
