Steps:
- Make the masa dough for the tamales: Beat one stick of butter with 2 tablespoons sugar until fluffy. Add the egg and beat until mixture is smooth.
- Place the corn kernels in a food processor or blender with the buttermilk and the salt and process until smooth. Add corn to the butter/egg mixture and beat until well blended.
- Stir the baking powder into the masa (harina de maiz). Add dry ingredients to the corn/butter mixture, mixing until well blended. Stir in 3/4 cups grated Monterrey Jack cheese. Set aside.
- Place olive oil in a heavy skillet. Add chopped tomato, chopped scallions, and 1 teaspoon garlic salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until tomatoes are softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add can of black beans (including liquid) to the skillet with the tomatoes. Continue to cook, stirring, until most of the liquid has evaporated. Season with more garlic salt to taste if desired. Remove beans from heat and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese with the ranch dressing, lime juice, and minced cilantro.
- Assemble Tamales: Place a 7 by 12 inch rectangle of Reynolds Wrap Non-Stick foil on the counter, with the non-stick side facing up.
- Spread about 1/3 cup of the corn masa dough into a 3 x 5 inch rectangle in the center of the foil. Spread 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture on top of the masa. Place 1/4 cup of the beans on top of the cream cheese. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon grated Monterrey Jack and 1 tablespoon chopped red pepper over the beans. Top with another 1/3 cup masa, and spread it to cover the bean and cheese filling.
- Fold one short end of the foil up over the filling. Fold the two long sides in over the filling. There will be one end that is still open. Lift the tamale with the open end facing upwards and twist foil to close that end.
- Make 3 more tamales in the same way.
- Place tamales in a steamer basket, and place the basket over a pot with 2 inches of simmering water. Tamales should not touch the water. Cover tightly with a lid and steam tamales for 1 hour, checking water level from time to time.
- Let tamales cool for 15-20 minutes before serving. Serve with extra cream cheese mixture on the side.
- Tamales can be made ahead and reheated in the oven or in a steamer. Unwrap tamales before reheating them in the microwave. This recipe makes 4 large tamales, but you can use the ingredients to make 8-10 smaller tamales, if you prefer, or even 16 appetizer size tamales.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F; line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil and cut off an additional 4 squares of foil to make fish packets.
- Melt butter in olive oil over low heat; brush foil squares with just a small amount of this mixture (the remainder will be used for the sauce) - alternatively, you can spray the foil with cooking spray.
- Season both sides of the fish with salt and pepper; lay one fillet on each foil square and grate the lemon zest over each.
- Close up packets and arrange on a prepared baking sheet; bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place cauliflower florets, onion, and tomatoes in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil; arrange, in a single layer, on the other prepared baking sheet.
- Season vegetables with salt and pepper and roast until cauliflower just begins to brown on the edges and tomatoes soften and collapse, about 15 minutes.
- Once fish and vegetables are done, place almonds in remaining olive oil/butter mixture and heat just until almonds are golden, only about 1 minute - be careful, they burn easily (even if they do brown, they are still good).
- Open packets and plate fish with cauliflower mix along side; top with sauce and garnish with fresh parsley.

ASIAN CILANTRO TILAPIA #RSC
Ready, Set, Cook! Reynolds Wrap Contest Entry. I'm of a Korean background so the asian flavors of salty, sweet, sesame, ginger, garlic is present. My kids love it and I don't think they realize they're eating 'fish'. They don't need to know as long as they like it and eat it. lol. Using the tilapia is the best cuz of the lightness of the fish. The distinctiveness of the cilantro will give it a great fresh herb taste.
