This is one of my go-to dishes when I want that light but tasty dish. It’s perfect for when I’m in the mood for good flavor, and I want to be out of the kitchen fast. With the Tilapia fish it’s light and mixes well with various side dishes. Tilapia is high in Vitamin B12 and protein, it’s low in fat, but rich in Phosphorus. The benefits of incorporating red potatoes are crazy. They are low in fat. High in Vitamin C, Potassium, and the very best is they don’t have sodium and cholesterol. This recipe is easy, fast , and so dang delicious. In this series I will be using the Cuisinart Air Fryer as it’s multifunctional. Here we go!
