Cook bulgur
1
  • Combine stock powder and 2/3 cup (1 cup) water in a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once boiling, stir in bulgur, then return to a boil. Cover and remove pot from heat.
  • Let stand until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed, 16-18 min.
Prep

  • Meanwhile, roughly chop spinach.
  • Thinly slice green onion.
  • Halve tomatoes.
  • Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.

  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • While the pan heats, pat tilapia dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper and remaining Southwest Spice Blend. 
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then tilapia. Cook until tilapia is opaque and cooked through, 2-3 min** per side.
