Crispy Tilapia

Thu, 21 Nov 2002 20:18:01 -0500

Crispy! Serve with tartar sauce. You can cut into small pieces before breading so the kids can eat like nuggets. You can also deep fry! Stays crispy for packing in a lunch or picnic! A major importance in artisanal fishing in Africa and the Levant, and are of increasing importance in aquaculture around the world. -- posted by ~Rita~

Tilapia a la Portuguesa

Mon, 31 Mar 2003 20:08:48 -0500

This is very easy to make and is simply delicious. The wine is an optional ingredient, but I think it really gives the fish great flavor. -- posted by canarygirl

Tilapia al Ajillo (garlic tilapia)

Thu, 03 Apr 2003 20:21:23 -0500

You can do this with any white fish, sea bass is great this way. Fish is often served this way in the Canary Islands, though usually it is the whole fish instead of fillets. YUM! -- posted by canarygirl

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

Mildly Lemony Tilapia

Mon, 05 Apr 2004 20:00:18 -0400

Oven Poached Tilapia and Broccoli

Tue, 18 May 2004 20:00:56 -0400

This meal could be made with any mild tasting white fish. Broccoli is my choice, or any "hard vegetable" could be used. Cooking is a Creative Sport. This will make a nice meal for one person served with rice. -- posted by Bill Hilbrich

Elegant Baked Fish With Tomato and Lemon

Mon, 08 Nov 2004 20:00:27 -0500

This recipe is healthy, simple, and elegant enough for a party. It originally came from a restaurant in the Napa Valley of California. This cooks fast, so have the rest of your dishes ready or nearly ready by the time you put the fish in the oven. I have used tilapia but any white fish fillets should work. -- posted by Nose

Simple Peruvian Ceviche

Tue, 15 Feb 2005 19:59:38 -0500

The best and easiest Ceviche recipe I've ever tasted (and I've tried them all over South America). It's quick, easy and disappears quickly. The habanero peppers make it spicy without giving it the distinctive flavor of jalapenos and it's great without hot peppers too. You can adjust any of the seasonings to suit your taste. I am not a cilantro fan, but this is the only recipe in which I will tolerate cilantro. -- posted by Susan #2

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

Joshua's Favorite Tilapia With Jasmine Rice

Thu, 07 Apr 2005 18:23:06 -0400

This is my very own creation, I whipped this up one day quite by accident. I call this Joshua's favorite Tilapia, because my husband (like me) could eat this 7 nights a week if we could. This is the easiest way to cook Tilapia, and if you are watching those calories then you need not worry this is extremely low fat, oh and did I mention TO DIE FOR !!! This recipe is SIMPLE with FEW ingredients, but has the potential to add what ever you want. I like it AS IS ! -- posted by Shirl (J) 831

Cioppino a La South Beach

Tue, 02 Aug 2005 11:10:23 -0400

An Italian favorite to be enjoyed by all SBD phases. It's light, filling, refreshing, and delicious. NOT a fishy tasting or stinky soup. Creamy but without the fat since you will be using tomato sauce that's organic and not sugared down. -- posted by SuzsterSBD

From the South Florida Sun-Times, Thursday, September 22, 2005 This is a very light and easy recipe to make that we have really enjoyed time and time again. Depending on the size of the lemon it can become a bit too much lemon for ones taste so adjust accordingly. -- posted by jdrichardson

Old Bay Tilapia, Sweet Potatoes and Veggies

Thu, 23 Nov 2006 19:24:26 -0500

I'm not a huge fan of the classic sweet potato casserole, so I concocted this dish. The reds, oranges, and yellows are perfect for fall entertaining! Then I decided that the flavors would complement tilapia, orange roughy, or any white fish really well. It was a hit as both a vegetable side and as a full meal. -- posted by poo235

French Style Roasted Perch With Fennel, Tomatoes and Wine

Fri, 16 Mar 2007 17:18:26 -0400

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

Spiced Tilapia With Mango Black Bean Salsa

Mon, 28 May 2007 21:03:24 -0400

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

Seafood Gumbo

Wed, 06 Jun 2007 14:37:41 -0400

Truly the best gumbo recipe. The cayenne is adjustable for the amount of heat you want in your gumbo. If you like Cajun this is by far the best gumbo you will ever have. The recipe was given to me by a Cajun about 5 years ago and I finally came to making it and WOW. (this stores well in mason jars. if your not serving immediately only add seafood to the mixture when you are to serve and only when mixture is boiling for a 3 minutes and then take the gumbo off the heat.) -- posted by Chef #457852 - bggio

I found this posted online and made it right away. This is sooooo easy to prepare and tastes DELICIOUS! Next time I make it, I'm going to toss in some minced garlic with the tomatoes, I believe. It had a bit too much liquid to it, but I just sprinkled some over the fish and enjoyed it. -- posted by SmoochTheCook

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
