Tilapia recipes | Tilapia fillet recipe
Today I’m sharing my easy pan seared tilapia recipe! This recipe will give you fish that is crispy on the outside and perfectly flaky and delicious on the inside! Cook my tilapia recipe on a weeknight for a quick, delicious and easy dinner!
________________________________
INGREDIENTS:
2 large tilapia fillets
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp butter
2 garlic cloves
1/4 lemon
Parsley for garnish
Dry Batter:
2 tbsp all purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp red chilli flakes
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp dried thyme
METHOD:
1. Clean and pat dry 2 large tilapia fillets. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and set aside for 5 mins
2. In a plate, mix all the ingredients mentioned under dry batter. Coat the fish on both sides with the dry batter and gently shake off excess
3. On low flame, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet/wide pan and infuse it with 2 crushed garlic cloves. Once the garlic starts to brown, remove it from the pan. This way we get a subtle garlic flavor in the dish
4. Next melt 2 tbsp butter in the oil. If using salted, don't add salt to the dry batter or it might end up too salty
5. Set flame to medium and gently place the fish. Fry for 3-4 mins per side. Be careful while flipping as it can break easily
6. Once the fish is done, squeeze the juice of 1/4 lemon all over and garnish with fresh parsley
7. Serve these delicious pan fried Tilapia fillets with sautéed veggies or a salad

How to Cook Crispy Whole Skillet Fish
Red Snapper Pan Fried then finished in the oven. The perfect warm weather solution to healthy, light and satisfying meals to make any day of the weak!
Crispy Lemony Whole Fish
Prep Time: 10 Min Cook Time: 20-25 min
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 Red Snapper – gutted and scaled (about 2 ½ to 3 lbs)
1 Lemon
2 Tbs Canola Oil (Expeller pressed, organic preferred)
3 Tbs unsalted butter
Kosher Salt, Black Pepper, Garlic Powder
Pinch of Cayenne Pepper (about 1/8 tsp)
2 Tbs All Purpose Flour
Preparation
Step 1 Pre heat Oven to 425 degrees (218C)
Step 2 Cut the lemon in half. Slice thin about 6 rings for one half and cut wedges for second half, set aside. Rinse and thoroughly dry the fish inside the cavity and outside with clean paper towels. Trim any fins leaving the dorsal fin in tact if you’d like.
Step 3 With a sharp pairing or filet knife cut diagonal incisions on each side of the fish. Be careful not to cut down to the bone, you just want to make about 3 deep scores on each side of the fish. Season fish all over with salt pepper and garlic powder to taste. Make sure to season inside the cavity as well. Add 2-3 lemon rings inside the cavity of the fish. In a small bowl mix flour, a heavy pinch of salt, pepper, garlic and cayenne thoroughly. Evenly coat fish with a thin layer of the flour mixture tapping off any excess flour.
Step 4 Using a heavy-bottomed oven safe skillet or cast-iron pan, heat the oil on Medium-High. Add 1 tbs of butter to the oil and once it’s foamy add the fish to the pan carefully. (Holding the fish by the tail and lowering it into the pan away from you is the safest method to avoid oil from splattering onto you) Immediately begin pressing the fish down into the skillet with a spatula to sear the skin. Repeat this process for 2-3 minutes. Carefully lift the fish and flip.
Step 5 Add the remaining butter and lemon rings. Once the butter is foamy, gently tilt the pan towards you and begin basting the fish all over with a large spoon, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 6 Move the entire pan into the oven and finish cooking the fish another 15-20 minutes, depending on how large the fish is. If it’s on the smaller side, 15 minutes should be just right.
Remove from oven, transfer to a paper lined platter and serve with the lemon wedges.
For a classic fish fry, serve with fries, coleslaw and macaroni salad! To make it super healthy serve with grilled veggies and brown rice.
