To top a bed of fluffy rice and tender bok choy, we’re searing tilapia fillets in a coating of ground mustard, smoked paprika, cayenne, and more, for bold flavor.

step 2

Prepare the ingredients:

While the rice cooks, wash and dry the fresh produce. Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white bottoms and hollow green tops. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Cut off and discard the root end of the bok choy; thinly slice crosswise. Halve the lime crosswise; squeeze the juice into a medium bowl.

step 3

Cook the bok choy & finish the rice:

While the rice continues to cook, in a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the sliced white bottoms of the scallions and chopped garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until softened. Add the sliced bok choy; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened. Transfer to the pot of cooked rice; stir to combine. Cover to keep warm. Wipe out the pan.

step 4

Cook the fish:

Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Season on both sides with salt, pepper, and enough of the spice blend to coat (you may have extra). In the same pan, heat the sesame oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned fish and cook 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through. Turn off the heat.

step 5

Make the sauce & serve your dish:

While the fish cooks, to the bowl of lime juice, add the honey (kneading the packet before opening), sliced green tops of the scallions, and sesame seeds. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to thoroughly combine. Serve the cooked fish over the finished rice. Top the fish with the sauce. Enjoy!
