Any good recipies for tilapia???

slice fillets into finger sized strips coat with cornmeal & seasoning of choice and fry until crisp.

just had some about 1 hr ago

Thanks Parker. Any others?

I like to pan fry it (canola oil,light coat on pan), break up the fillets and mix with taco seasoning and make taco. Low fat and good to eat.

I tried this not long ago take the filet salt and pepper it than take some tortilla chips put them in a zip lock bag and crush up until they are pretty fine coat the fish with mayo.then coat with the crushed chips cook the fish until done then get some roasted red peppers in the bottle put in the blender and blend till its like a sauce heat the sauce then cover the fish with the sauce

My wife used some recipie that called for sour cream. The sour cream overpowered the fish.

I bake it with some onions and lemon pepper seasoning

Any recipe that works for crappie, bream, bass etc works for tilapia. I usually bake it basted in butter and lemon pepper though.

Thanks for the ideas.

bassaholic was that yall chunking the net on fairfield behind us last sunday?

This is excellent! My Kids Love it!

Bronzed Tilapia I have cooked it in the oven @400 degrees, on the stove and on my gas grill @400 degrees using a cast iron griddle. Grilled is my favorite.

Redfish Magic.....sprinkle liberally on top of fillet. Pad of butter. Wrap in foil throw on grill. DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELIcious.

Where do you get redfish magic?

Any major supermarket should have it. I believe it's called Chef Paul Prudhomme's Blackened Redfish Magic.

Yep. I've found it at all the grocery stores. Best blackening spice out there.

Olive oil-light coat, sprinkle Tony Cachere's (sp?) seasoning, grill it. Fish Tacos !!!

Raspberry Chipotle sauce and then on the smoker for a couple of hours. Mesquite wood with red wine, lemon, lime and a couple of sprigs of rosemary in the water pan.
Put a couple of onions and bell peppers to cook in the water pan also.
I usually do a couple of tilapia and salmon this way.

Wasnt me. Havent been on Fairfield in a few years.

Thanks for the input guys. This gives me alot of options.

Easiest and best way is to get a skillet really hot, throw about 3-4 pats of unsalted butter into the skillet, sprinkle a little bit of Tony's on both side and cook for about 4 mins each side until golden brown.

cant stand tilapia. nastiest fish i ever ate

No, your thinking of catfish and salmon...

i like catfish. hate salmon too, ties with tilapia for nastiest fish i ever ate

I used a parmesan ranch shake and bake the other night. Turned out pretty good.

I actually liked the tilapia. Had never had it before. Just got to find a better way to cook it. Some recipies go way overboard with the stuff they use.

I tried the Redfish Magic and it is very good. Very similar to the Bronzed Tilapia recipe but, seems to have red pepper or a little spicier. My kids and wife said it was ok but, too spicy for them. They prefer the Bronze. I like spicy stuff so the RM was great for me since I didn't have to make the recipe. Just open the jar and sprinkle it on.

For those that do not like the taste of fish, tilapia is a good choice. That is why it has become the "go to" fish for most restaraunts. What you taste is the seasoning and not the fish.

I liked it. May have to get some more. My wife just bought it from the store.

My brother in law and I where down there sunday all day. Netted a bunch of them critter`s. We were in a green and white procraft.
