this is how I have been doing mine...


line the bottom of a pan with tin foil.

Arrange tilapia on tinfoil

Thinly slice onions and place them on top of fish.

You can season them how you want, but I use minced garlic, pepper, a little cajun seasoning, sometimes a little light Italian dressing.

put another sheet of tinfoil and pinch edges, making a packet.

Cook at 350 for about 20 min or until fish is flaky.

Try tilapia fish tacos, cook tomato, unions in a pan light I can't belive it's not butter it's like 99 percent fat free and it tastes like butter add salt pepper I also put chiken base to give it little more flavor sqeese a lime when almost done, warm up corn tortillas add lettuce and fresh tomatos and enjoy, just had thesse last night there good : )

I like to brush my fish with olive oil and then a little cajun seasoning, wrap in foil and throw it on the gas grill, easy and delicious.

I've had a few ideas I want to try with Tilapia but I haven't yet. I am a culinary school graduate. But I had an idea for a bruchetta Tilapia.

Basically take diced tomatoes, basil chiffonade...or cut in strips, light balsamic vinegar, and a little minced garlic. Mix all of that together. You can cook your tilapia however you would like..baked, grilled, poached, steamed....whatever you like. I would prefer wrapping it in foil with pan spray and seasoning it with kosher or sea salt and pepper. Bake on 400 for about 15 to 20 minutes and then when its done top it with a few tablespoons of the Bruschetta.

Also if you don't really like that idea, You could do baked it on a sheet tray with pan spray..season the fish with salt and pepper. Top the fish with a small dice of tomatoes and mint. Then mix a little white wine and lemon juice and spoon a little of the fish as your baking it. I've done this with red snapper at the fine dining restaurant I worked at.

Tip- if you're gonna use salt use kosher or sea salt.

I'm also interested in any other recipes that anyone is willing to share.

How many Calories

I love fish tacos. I am not a huge fan of tilapia as I do not think it has much flavor. My wife does not like "fishy" fish, so i came up with a totally different recipie for them.

Here is the blackening spice

Equal parts garilic powder, onion powder, paprika.
Half part of black pepper
One fourth part red pepper

I saved an old spice bottle and make my season mix in it.

I dont measure anything, but that is close. So i am clear, if itis 2 teaspoons of garlic, 2 of onion powder and 2 of paprika, than its 1 of black pepper and half a teaspoon of red pepper.

I cook this outside in a grill, in a pan. Get a pan very hot, i like to use a little olive oil, and a teaspoon of minced garlic. Then drop the fish on the pan. Turn down the heat to about 3/4. While that side sears in garlic, liberally cover the other side with the mixed up seasoning. When you flip the fish it will blacken.

For the greens part, take 4 zucchini and shred them shoe string style on a mandolin, or cut them into thin stips. Inuse a small can of sliced black olives, about a cup of fresh copped basil. Put that in a bowl. I por a small amout, maybe a quarter cup of olive oil on it, 2 heaping teaspoons of minced garlic, and 2 teaspoons of crumbled blue cheese. Mix it all up.

When the fish is done, i use a low card, wheat tortilla, fish and some of the zuchini mix. It is really good.
