Stir Fry Tilapia Fillets with Vegetables

 

My first post!!!! Woohoo!!! super excited, I’ve been prepared for this day for a very long time!!! 

I am not that professional enough and i DONT KNOW how to butcher a whole fish myself, the easiest & fastest way for me to prepare a fish dish is getting those "ready-to-go" fillets from the supermarket, but since it's already prepared by the supermarket people and deboned the fish for you, sometimes the price could very pricey. At one of my local supermarkets was having Tilapia Fillet on sale for $6 a bag (frozen)!!! What an awesome deal right?!?!

Here's the Super Hungry Chick version of Stir Fry Tilapia with Vegetables~ enjoy~
