Oven-Broiled Tilapia and Homemade Sweet Potato and French Fries

This is a quick and easy sub for fish and chips and both the regular and sweet potato fries were amazing with the spices. Hannah liked it with ketchup on both the fish and fries. This meal is also super filling and delicious! This may be one of my new favorite meal.

Lemon Garlic Tilapia

Ingredients

4 tilapia fillets
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
pepper to taste

Oven Baked Sweet Potato/Homestyle Fries


1 sweet potato and 4 regular potatoes
2 T extra virgin olive oil
1/2 t cumin
1/2 t oregano
1/2 t coriander
1 t kosher salt
1 t parsley
fresh ground pepper (about 10 turns of a pepper mill)

Directions

Slice your sweet potatoes into french fry shape and size. Regular potatoes can be cut larger, like steak fries, but not sweet potatoes which will sometimes result in a big soggy mess, so stay small to get the best results.

Put sliced potatoes in a bowl and drizzle olive oil over them, then sprinkle flavoring over and toss them to coat completely. Using Broiler, cook approx. 10 min on one side, then flip and cook another 10 min. Check to make sure they are fully cooked on both sides.


Reading this is making me hungry. I think I'm going to go finish off the leftover fries...
