Instructions

Make rice
1
  • Remove outer layer of lemongrass, then using the back of a spoon or a pot, gently hit lemongrass to lightly crush. 
  • Meanwhile, using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • Add rice and lemongrass to the boiling water, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. (NOTE: Reduce heat to low if water is boiling over.)
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep

  • Meanwhile, trim green beans.
  • Zest half the lime (use whole lime for 4 ppl).
  • Cut lime into wedges.
Cook green beans
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over over medium-high.
  • When hot, add green beans and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until water evaporates, 4-5 min.
  • Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, half the Thai Seasoning and half the ginger-garlic puree (use all for 4 ppl). Cook, stirring often, until fragrant and green beans are tender-crisp, 1 min. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Transfer to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
Prep and cook fish
4
  • Meanwhile, pat tilapia dry with paper towels. Season all over with remaining Thai Seasoning, salt and pepper.
  • When beans are done, wipe the pan clean, then reduce heat to medium.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to the pan, then tilapia. Cook until tilapia is opaque and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.** 
Make sauce
5
  • Remove the pan from heat, then add sweet chili sauce, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) water and fish sauce. Cook, until warmed through and sauce coats tilapia, 1 min. 
Finish and serve

  • Remove lemongrass from rice, then fluff with a fork. 
  • Season rice with salt, to taste, then stir in lime zest.
  • Divide rice, beans and tilapia between plates. 
  • Top tilapia with any remaining sauce from the pan.
