Meatless Friday: Tilapia with Ginger and Lemongrass

Tilapia is a very versatile fish, and it's easy to cook. This Asian-inspired recipe has a light flavor and pairs well with steamed snow peas and jasmine rice. Covering it while baking steams the fish so it remains moist--these thin fillets can dry out so quickly!
