This evening I cooked some Tilapia. It was a post-workout meal and so I decided to bake it with plenty of garlic. Garlic is known to have powerful anti-inflammatory properties. This makes it a great food to eat if you do a lot of physical exercise, to reduce any pain and decrease recovery time. I also love the taste of the stuff! Tilapia with parsley garlic butter sauce

• 2 tablespoons butter or so.
• A few cloves garlic, as finely chopped as you can manage.
• Bit of pepper.
• Bit of salt.
• Bit of parsley.
• Bit of paprika.
• 3 tilapia fillets.

Preparation: Throw butter, garlic, pepper, salt, parsley, and paprika into saucepan. Cook on low heat until butter is melted and starts simmering. Stir it for a couple of minutes to let all the flavour come out of the garlic. When you are ready, rub some of the sauce in the bottom of a baking dish then place tilapia fillets into the dish. Pour remainder of sauce on top of tilapia fillets. Bake at 350° F for around 20 minutes, until tilapia flakes easily with a fork. Yum!
