Tilapa help?

had it last night.

use pam on your skillet, then season the fish (thawed) with your desired seasonings, and cook in skillet over medium to high heat until it's "flaky" white. flip it ever 3-5 min or so.. just watch it. i usually have to add more pam. i like to squeeze lemon juice over it while it's cooking. YUM.

i have also heard it cooks in microwave pretty well and you can broil it too.

simple and easy just seasonit. preheat your oven to about 400 and put it in the oven for about 10-20 minutes, depending on how you like your fish. i cook mine for about 20 minutes because i like it kinda dry. You can top it with a lil salsa if you like. I eat baked talapia almost everynight.

I use Pam in a skillet and sprinkle Mrs.Dash table seasoning on both sides. Yummy!

I love it on the grill with tin foil.. I usually spray the foil with olive oil spray then put lemon pepper and a little fresh squeezed lemon on it with a few ice cubes to keep it moist!! Good luck!!

Lately I have been using the Forman grill for everything lol. I season it with lemon pepper and a little seasoning salt.

Depends on how thick it is, put it in the 400 degree oven and bake it until it flakes and the flakes aren't clear.
However, it's what you do after you cook it. When you have more time, try this salsa on top of it.

Mango-Grape Salsa with Cilantro & Lime

Makes 4 cups.
Ingredients

2 ripe mangoes, peeled, pitted and diced (or use other seasonal fruit such as peaches or papaya if mangoes are unavailable)
2 cups halved fresh seedless grapes
1/4 cup minced red onion
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice


Preparation

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.

I make it in the early afternoon and let the flavours blend. I also don't refrigerate it because I like it room temp. You can put some jalapeno in it if you like it spicy. The tiny bit of red onion cuts the sweetness just enough and this is heavenly over the tilapia.

Enjoy

It is sooo increadible diversital: I always cook it in a pan because its easier to control and you dont want it over cooked. Use pam and I had about 2 tablespoons of water and steam it once its about 1/2 way cooked just put a lid on the pan......

Use Cajun seasoning and pair it with corn tortillas sauteed onions and mushrooms for yummy tacos
use Fat free ginger sesame seed salad dressing over the top and pair it with stir fry veggies
Cook it -flake it and make tilapa cakes out of it by shredding celery and onions and a tablespoon of light mayo dill and lemon and pan searing it.

It really will take on the flavor of anything you want it too

I love tilapia. I mix some apricot jam with a little* bit of soy sauce and baste the fish with that while in a pan. SO YUMMY.

I take my tilapia and spray both sides with lemon juice. Then I put some oregano and some salt free spices. I then put a piece of low fat cheese and bake it for 15 min at 350. The cheese tastes AMAZING on it, and its under 200 calories :-)

Asian aisle at the store has this bread krumbs that are wonderful to just throw the fish in after you dip it in beaten egg. You can then bake it and it comes out crispy, without being fried!

I'm trying this...

Lightly dredge the tilapia in flour that's been seasoned with pepper (or your choice of seasonings).
Pan fry the tilapia in a little oil.

Make some cole slaw and instead of slathering mayo on it, just put a little -- open up a jar of chipotles in adobo sauce, and use some of the adobe sauce in the slaw.

Take a flour tortilla, a tilapia filet and some slaw -- yum! easy-to-make fish taco!

i sray some butter, season it, and put it in the microwave for 2 minutes. I also break up some cauliflower and put it around the filet, which is so yummy! Sometimes I top it with sauteed spinach. I eat this for lunch every day! Love it!

this is my favorite...OJ on it...yummy

Bump - yummy!!!
