Quick and easy! This is a favorite way that my little ones like to eat fish. If you want to lessen the heat, just decrease the amount of spices and switch out chili oil for garlic or plain olive oil.
Ingredients
- 12 oz pasta (any type, I’ve used everything from spaghetti to orecchiette) shopping list
- 1 lb mild white fish (I’ve used cod, tilapia, swai, pollock) shopping list
- 4 tablespoons butter shopping list
- 4 tablespoons chili flavored olive oil (or for a more mild flavor, use garlic flavored olive oil) shopping list
- 1 tablespoon dry, minced onion shopping list
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes shopping list
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper shopping list
- ½ teaspoon black pepper shopping list
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder shopping list
- grated parmesan cheese (optional) shopping list
How to make it
- Cook the pasta in boiling, salted water until it is al dente.
- Meanwhile, put the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- As the butter starts to melt, add the minced onion and the red pepper flakes and stir into the butter & oil.
- When the butter has melted, add the fish to the panand sprinkle the cayenne pepper, black pepper and garlic powder in over the fish; turn the heat up to medium-high.
- Cook the fish until it flakes easily, turning occasionally.
- When the fish is cooked, remove the pan from the heat and use a stiff spatula or a fork to break the fish up into bite size pieces.
- When the pasta has cooked to al dente, drain and return it to the pot.
- Immediately pour the contents of the skillet over the pasta and stir gently to combine.
- If needed (or desired), drizzle additional olive oil over the pasta mixture or melt in an additional pat of butter.
- Top with parmesan cheese, if desired.
