Ingredients

1 box Dreamfields Angel Hair Pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup green onion chopped
2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
1 tablespoon garlic minced
1/2 cup carrots julienne or thickly shredded
1/2-1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 cup marinara sauce
2 tablespoons fresh basil sliced
1 pound tilapia fillets (2 to 4 fillets)
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese shredded
1/4 cup sliced almonds toasted
salt and pepper

Directions

Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion, parsley, garlic and carrots; stir well. Add red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Continue cooking about 5 minutes, until onion is browned, stirring frequently. Add marinara sauce and fresh basil. Cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions.
Place tilapia fillets in skillet. Pour lemon juice and wine over fish. Cook 2 minutes; turn carefully with spatula. Continue cooking 2 minutes or until cooked through (fish flakes easily when tested with fork). Remove from heat. Remove fish from skillet. Cut into 1-inch wide pieces.
Drain pasta; toss pasta with sauce in skillet. Gently stir in fish. Top with Parmesan cheese and toasted almonds.

Note: To toast almonds, spread on rimmed baking pan. Place in 350°F oven 8 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring occasionally. Remove from oven; cool completely.
