Ingredients

  • 4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia

  • ¼ teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)

  • 2 teaspoons butter

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1 lemon, sliced

  • 1 (16 ounce) package frozen cauliflower with broccoli and red pepper

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees F). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  2. Place tilapia fillets in the bottom of the baking dish and season with seafood seasoning. Melt butter with garlic in a small bowl in the microwave, about 30 seconds on medium; pour over fish. Top each fillet with a slice or two of lemon. Arrange the frozen mixed vegetables around the fish, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until vegetables are tender and fish flakes easily with a fork, 25 to 30 minutes.
