Cooking Tilapia
Begin by pan-searing the tilapia fillets in a hot skillet until they’re golden and cooked through.
Once the fish is ready, glaze them with a mix of honey and sriracha, followed by a splash of soy sauce.
Preparing Veggie Slaw
In a bowl, combine thinly sliced cabbage, carrots, and bell peppers.
Steam the green beans until they reach a tender-crisp texture.
Assembly
Plate the tilapia alongside the slaw and steamed green beans.
Top it off with a soft-boiled egg and drizzle sesame-ginger vinaigrette for a finishing touch.
Notes
You can customize the slaw with additional vegetables like cucumbers or radishes. For variations, substitute tilapia with salmon, cod, chicken, or tofu.
