I like mine with small knob of butter lemon juice salt pepper. Brushetta on top was good too. I broil mine in toaster oven. I saw fish tacos made out of tilapia.

Re: Tilapia recipes?

I use some spray butter with some lemon pepper and I broil it.

Tastes a lot like what I get from Red Lobster.

Re: Tilapia recipes?

I second the spray butter and then I add garlic powder to it and bake it.

I use Mrs. Dash tomato basil and garlic along with some salt and pepper and bake them in the oven. I serve it with some malt vinegar over top.

Thanks ladies, those all sound yummy. I did find one in a magazine. It calls for 1/4 cup egg substitute, 1 Tbsp. fat free milk, 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 Tbsp. flour, and 2 tilapia fillets (5 oz. ea.) Mix the egg sub and milk together in a shallow bowl. In another bowl, combine Parm cheese and flour. Dip fillets in egg mixture, then coat with cheese mixture. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork. I fillet has 196 cal. 5g. fat and a trace of fiber. Thanks again for sharing your recipes.

Soft Fish Tacos.......i love these!!

1/2 cup ff tartar sauce ( again use only enough if You dont use 4 cups of mix)
1/2 t cumin
1/2 salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 1/2 pounds tilapia fillets
2 T olive oil
1 T lemon juice
10 corn tortillas ( 6 inches,warmed)
Shredded cheddar cheese,chopped tomato and sliced avacado,optional

In a large bowl, toss the coleslaw mix,tartar sauce,salt,pepper and cumin. Set aside.

In a large skillet, cook tilapa in oil and lemon juice over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Place tilapia on tortillas;top with coleslaw mixture. serve with cheese,tomato and avacado if desired.


2 tacos without the toppings=6 points
