Poached Tilapia with Bigelow's® Green Tea with Lemon Butter Sauce
Ingredients:
½ cup boiling water
6 Bigelow Green Tea with Lemon*
Tea Bags tied together
4 additional Bigelow
Green Tea with Lemon Tea Bags
3 to 4 tablespoons of cold butter, cut into pieces
4 Tilapia fillets
Salt & white pepper to taste
1/4 tsp. of tarragon, finely chopped
1 teaspoon of shallots, minced
1/4 cup of orange juice
Yield: Serves 4

Instructions:
Pour 1/2 cup of boiling water over 4 Bigelow
Green Tea with Lemon tea bags and steep for 4 minutes. Remove
tea bags, squeeze to extract as much liquid as possible. Set aside
(to be poured over fish fillets later).
Butter a large flat glass dish. Season fish with salt and pepper.
Position the fillets flat in the buttered glass dish. Cover with
plastic wrap. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, bring the 1/4 cup of orange juice to a
boil. Turn off the heat; add the 6 tea bags and tie them together.
Steep for 6 minutes, then remove. Squeeze the tied tea bags to
extract as much liquid as possible back into the saucepan. Discard
the tea bags. Add the teaspoon of shallots, bring back to a boil.
Turn off the heat and whisk in the butter, a cube at a time. Season
with salt and pepper. Keep warm over low heat.
Pour the infused tea that was set aside, over the seasoned fish
fillets, cover with plastic wrap. Place fish in the microwave on
high, for 3-4 minutes, or until just cooked through. Remove and let
stand for 1 minute before transferring to plates. Spoon sauce over
fish, sprinkle with fresh tarragon and serve.
