Preparation
Boil the orzo
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the orzo and boil, 9 to 10 min., until just tender.
- Drain and rinse.
- Return to the pot and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking; season with S&P.
Roast the zucchini
- Meanwhile, medium-dice the zucchini.
- On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil, ½ the spices and S&P.
- Roast, stirring halfway, 8 to 10 min., until browned and tender.
- Transfer to the pot of orzo.
Make the walnut-raisin agrodolce
- Meanwhile, pick the basil leaves off the stems; finely chop the leaves.
- Heat a large, dry pan (non-stick if possible) on medium.
- Add the walnuts and toast, stirring often, 2 to 3 min., until lightly browned and fragrant.
- Transfer to a cutting board and reserve the pan. Once cool, roughly chop.
- In a medium bowl, combine the walnuts, raisins, vinegar, basil, 1 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
Cook the tilapia
- Pat the tilapia dry; season with the remaining spices and S&P.
- In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the tilapia* and cook, 2 to 3 min. per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
Plate your dish
- Divide the orzo between your plates.
- Top with the tilapia and spoon the walnut-raisin agrodolce over. Bon appétit!
