Health and fertility benefits of Healthier Easy Baked Tilapia

Broccoli is one of the non-starchy vegetables that has a very low glycemic index (GI), which is beneficial for reducing blood sugar levels. Broccoli is also a source of DIM (Diindolymethane). Diindolymethane is very effective in reducing the testosterone levels in the body, an action that would automatically curb male dominant features and regulate the estrogen levels in the system. Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to.

Ingredients

4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
1/4 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
2 teaspoons butter
1 clove garlic, minced
1 lemon, sliced
1 (16 ounce) package frozen cauliflower with broccoli and red pepper
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees F). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Place tilapia fillets in the bottom of the baking dish and season with seafood seasoning. Melt butter with garlic in a small bowl in the microwave, about 30 seconds on medium; pour over fish. Top each fillet with a slice or two of lemon. Arrange the frozen mixed vegetables around the fish, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
Bake in the preheated oven until vegetables are tender and fish flakes easily with a fork, 25 to 30 minutes.
