Recipe ingredients

- 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) fresh thyme
- 4 apricots, diced
- 1 Tbsp. (15 mL) limon zeste
- 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) lemon juice*
- 4 drops almond extract
- To taste salt and white pepper
- To taste toasted slivered almonds
Preparation
In a small bowl, break cooked tilapia into pieces and let it cool a bit.
Add yogurt and lemon thyme to bind. Season with salt and pepper.
In another bowl, combine apricots with lemon juice and almond extract to make salsa.
Using moulds (or glasses), make timbales. Start with a layer of apricot salsa and top it with the tilapia mixture. Pack fi rmly and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Turn out the timbales and decorate with toasted slivered almonds.
Suggestion
Tilapia is a non-fatty, firm-fleshed fish that lends itself well to various cooking methods. For best results, cook tilapia over medium heat for 8-10 minutes per inch (2.5 cm) of thickness.* We recommend Selection and Irresistibles products.
