Tilapia Confetti Salad

Tue, 09 Sep 2003 20:03:02 -0400

I designed this delicious and attractive, easy to prepare dish for a friend's end of the summer party. It is a healthy, non-toxic forming* and completely digestive, complete protein meal. It is also low calorie and coordinates with BodyKnowledge-tm Intelligent Eating Plans (*see my profile for more info). Great for parties, families and weight management! Serve with steamed vegetables for added nutritional value. -- posted by spatchcock

Southwest Style Tilapia

Tue, 02 Dec 2003 20:00:33 -0500

These fillets are so easy to make and so tasty, crunchy on the outside. This is our favorite way to fix Tilapia. I got the recipe from the bag the fish came in. This recipe is NOT spicy & wasn't meant to be spicy. Taliapa is a sweet white, mild tasting fish. If you want spicy add spices to this recipe. -- posted by Barb Gertz

Pan-Seared Tilapia With Chile Lime Butter

Sat, 22 Jan 2005 20:02:34 -0500

Nice, fresh-tasting dish that comes together in a snap. Make it even quicker by preparing the chile lime butter ahead of time. It can be made 1 day ahead, covered and chilled. Just make sure to bring to room temperature before using. I like this served atop jasmine rice. -adapted from Gourmet -- posted by GaylaJ

Pan-seared Cod With Basil Sauce

Sun, 27 Feb 2005 20:00:09 -0500

This has a fresh pesto-like feel without the nuts, and a lot less fat. Any flaky white fish can be used here - I usually have tilapia or whitefish around rather than cod. I had an open bottle of Reisling and so I used that in place of the broth. From Cooking Light. -- posted by Vino Girl

Halibut With Roasted Grape Tomato Salsa

Tue, 15 Mar 2005 20:00:07 -0500

Being such a mild fish, halibut needs something to make it interesting! This recipe is much healthier than coating the fish with batter & deep frying. The juices are so good on a side of plain steamed rice. You can substitute with other types of fish or different kinds of tomatoes - just adjust the cooking times. If pearl onions aren't available, use a chopped red onion. -- posted by CountryLady

Broiled Tilapia With Thai Coconut- Curry Sauce

Tue, 12 Apr 2005 19:27:27 -0400

This dish is loaded with flavor and makes a lovely, colorful presentation. You'll want to serve with plenty of rice to absorb the wonderful sauce. (Noted added 11/05/07: I like to credit original recipe sources when known, but wasn't sure about this one when I submitted the recipe. Fortunately, a reviewer pointed out that the recipe came from Cooking Light, so I searched their site--indeed, it was originally published in their September 2002 issue. Thanks to the reviewer for bringing this to my attention, and thanks to Cooking Light for developing the recipe! :) ) -- posted by GaylaJ

Cilantro Lime Fish

Sat, 30 Apr 2005 21:52:38 -0400

This is a good one for those of us who love lime, since that is the predominant flavor here. Use cod, flounder, or any firm white fish for this. I used Tilapia, and in place of the dried onion I used fresh. I served it with Recipe #120719. From Taste of Home's Quick Cooking (September/October 1999). -- posted by Vino Girl

A delectable roasted fish and vegetable dish that is very popular in the South of France, especially Provence. I have listed Perch as the fish to use in this recipe, but Bream, John Dory, Halibut or Tilapia would also work very well. An elegant dinner dish, which needs very little attention, making it the perfect recipe for when you have company! Serve alongside poached or steamed seasonal vegetables, with wild rice or a simple salad. -- posted by French Tart

From Fine Cooking's "Cooking Fresh." This salsa is wonderful and versatile. Even though this recipe is for 2 servings, I suggest you make the whole batch of salsa (Recipe #230800) and store it for other dishes. It is obviously easier to make in larger batches. Try this spice rub on chicken or grilled chops as well! -- posted by yogiclarebear

Filete De Culichi (Tilapia W Mushrooms in Poblano Cream Sauce)

Sat, 26 Jan 2008 14:26:10 -0500

This is a my take on a special dish that our favorite Mexican restaurant in our town - 3 Margaritas - makes for my husband and me. It is not on the menu, but since we love fish they made this for us once and now we get it often, as do our friends. We expect this to be on the menu someday soon. It is tender Tilapia sautéed with garlic butter, topped with mushrooms and smothered in a special Poblano Cream sauce and it is YUMMY! You could replace the tilapia with anything - another kind of fish, chicken, whatever... and it would still be great! Serve with rice and beans on the side and fresh flour tortillas for dipping! -- posted by Sooz Cooks

Oven Roasted Tilapia With Tomatoes, Pesto and Lemon

Fri, 07 Mar 2008 00:49:32 -0500

Looking for something impressive but oh so easy? This simple and delicious dish would make a great 'date night' dinner or even doubled for a dinner party. Tilapia is a really mild fish without that 'fishy' taste making this a great recipe for people who do not like fish and a wonderful meal for those who do! Pesto and tomatoes are so lovely and aromatic together and roasting allows the flavors to intensify. What a simple way to create an incredibly delicious dish. In order to soak up every delicious drop I would serve this over a simple rice like my Recipe#137364 or serve it with a good crusty bread. Adding a simple green salad and a wonderful bottle of wine would make this meal totally rock! I would serve it with Chateau Ste Michele Dry Riesling. I found this recipe on http://ellysaysopa.com/2008/03/03/fish-for-people-who-dont-like-fish/ Of course I did change up a few things that I thought would make it even better. My mouth was watering so much when I read this recipe that I had to share it with you as fast as I could! If you try this before I get to the store and am able to make it please let me know what you think! After Breezermom's helpful comment I edited the directions for the pesto and lemon juice so the pesto is not runny. Thanks breezer! -- posted by mama's kitchen

Fish With Figs, Bacon and Pecans

Mon, 29 Sep 2008 19:49:37 -0400

This recipe is by Jim Shirley, the chef at "Fish House" in Pensacola, FL. It was prepared at the cooking demonstration during the Seafood Festival in 2007. Everyone that got a taste loved it, and at the festival this year (2008), people were still talking about it. He used redfish, but you could also use any nice firm white fish, such as trigger, snapper, or grouper. *Please note...If you choose to use tilapia, reduce the fig mixture..the tilapia is not a firm enough fish nor is it thick enough to support these flavors as posted!. Generally tilapia fillets are much thinner than redfish, and the sauce will overwhelm it.* **Please note...most of the reviews have used frozen tilapia....this fish is not thick enough to support the flavors of this recipe....please reduce the fig mixture if you are using tilapia!** Of course, fresh always tastes better than frozen, so try to go fishing or to your local fish market if you are on the coast. Be prepared to enjoy this! It is delicious! -- posted by breezermom

Almond-Crusted Tilapia

Sun, 05 Apr 2009 02:20:26 -0400

This "Healthy in a Hurry" recipe came from Good Housekeeping magazine, September 2008. "Appealingly mild and lean, tilapia still has plenty of heart-healthy omega-3 fats. (Bonus: It is one of the least mercury-laden fish, and is also low in sodium.) Green beans and mushrooms deliver fiber and potassium, while crunchy almonds boast antioxidants." I'd probably skip the oil and take my fats from extra almonds. -- posted by yogiclarebear

Pan-Seared 5-Spice Tilapia W/ Hot-Orange-Ginger Sauce

Tue, 07 Jul 2009 11:07:57 -0400

Spice rubs are the perfect way to jazz up mild-flavored fish and poultry. This rub - a blend of spices, herbs, salt, sugar and oil - transforms into a falvorful crust when cooked. Here we brushed the tilapia with a combination of Chinese Five-Spice Powder, salt, cayenne pepper, and oil. A purchased blend of Chinese Five-Spice Powder or one you have made is great - either one will work. CuisineAtHome.com: Issue 73 February 2009 edition. With the sauce - vary the amount of red pepper flakes to adjust the heat of the sauce to your liking. -- posted by Manami

Quick Baked Tilapia With Grapefruit Dill Butter

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 15:48:32 -0400

This literally takes minutes in the oven. Tilapia (an inexpensive fish, but you can add some great flavor to it), fresh grapefruit and dill make this dish absolutely wonderful. Serve this with some oven fries or fingerling potatoes and some fresh oven roasted zucchini planks, just with olive oil and fresh herbs is perfect. A light fresh dinner. For those who love the light tart taste of grapefruit this is for you. I prefer a nice ruby red grapefruit for this, but a white grapefruit will work fine, it will just be a bit more tart. -- posted by SarasotaCook
