    The first time I ever cooked Tilapia I made Costa-Rican Style Tilapia.....it was delicious! My mom doesn't even like fish and she loved it. Here is the link: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ingrid-hoffmann/baked-costa-rican-style-tilapia-with-pineapples-black-beans-and-rice-recipe/index.html

    Apia, not after seeing the episode of "worlds nastiest jobs" ,...... Tilapia are used to help clean the sewage treatment facilities. Nasty fish!

    i make tilapia and orange roughy all the time.... i spray pam in the bottom of a baking dish, place fish in dish. sprinkle with lawry seasoning salt and fresh ground black pepper..slice up either a half lemon or orange place slices on fish and drizzle a little orange juice over fish(i use tropicana trop 50,lower calorie) bake at 350 degrees till fish flakes easily with fork(20-25 min)tastes amazing!
    i also make a dish that you can use either tilapia or orange roughy or boneless skinless chicken breasts in... i slice zucchini and squash ..drizzle olive oil and season with either italian seasoning or fresh basil or whatever seasoning you prefer and then place either fish or chicken over and slice grape or cherry tomatoes in half and add more seasoning and bake 350 degrees..
    *** and cant wait to go camping and make ahead foil packets with fish and veggies over campfire!!! yummmmmm****

    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.

    this. i love it in the skillet with some 0 cal butter and a little lemon.
    serve with some rice.

    I love tilapia, you pretty much can't go wrong no matter how you make it. For me, I'm a simple guy, so I squeeze fresh lime juice on it and add some cilantro. Cover in foil, put on the grill. Simple, tasty.

    Well, if you were thinking of going to your local mega-mart and picking up a package of "sewage tilapia", I'd see your point, but... pond-raised tilapia from the U.S. are certainly not garbage fish...!

    I spray olive oil on tilipia and then season it with powdered garlic smoked pepper and put a tsp of minced christopoher ranch garlic. Then I finish it with a squeeze of lemon. On the side I slice red onions and bake it. Its good because the onions taste sweet and compliments the fish. Mrs Dash seasonings are also good.

    You can marinate it for a few hours and grill it on the BBQ or you can just cook it in a saute pan. I make it once or twice a week and it's delicious!!! I get a marinade at Fresh and Easy that is cheap but very tasty and low is calories, fat, etc. :) Good luck!:happy:
