# How To Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or apply light coating of oil.
02 - Pat tilapia fillets dry with paper towels. Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Brush herb mixture evenly over both sides of fillets and arrange on prepared baking sheet.
03 - Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork and reaches opaque appearance throughout.
04 - Bring 2 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to boil in a saucepan. Add rice, reduce heat to low, cover with lid, and simmer for 15 to 18 minutes until tender and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with fork before serving.
05 - Place broccoli florets and carrot slices in steamer basket over simmering water and steam for 5 to 7 minutes until crisp-tender. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper if desired.
06 - Divide cooked rice equally among four serving bowls. Top each portion with one tilapia fillet and distribute steamed vegetables evenly across servings.
