Step up your fish recipe with this easy Pan Fried Tilapia with Bonefish Grill’s Chimichurri Sauce.
If you like trying new seafood recipes, then you will enjoy my next few posts. I am really trying to eat lighter these days (birthday cupcakes yesterday don’t count)…so fish and shrimp will be showing up on the weekly menu more often.
Recently we went to one of my favorite restaurants, Bonefish Grill. This place has the freshest fish, and everything we try there is always delicious. The last time we were there for dinner, I had Grilled Grouper with a Chimichurri Sauce that was out of this world. I thought about it for days.
I wanted to recreate my delicious meal recently and was so happy to discover the recipe for the Chimichurri sauce on Bonefish Grill’s website. Even better, they have several great recipes posted that I would love to try! I think the Pan Asian sauce might be next!
