Toss the Broccoli in oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper mix. Spread onto a greased sheet tray and roast for about 8 minutes.

The roasted Broccoli should smell great and still be crunchy to the bite.

Place roasted tilapia over the rice and broccoli in the center of the dish, and spoon sweet & sour sauce over fish and   around edges of plate.
