PEANUT-CRUSTED TILAPIA WITH FRIZZLED GINGER & SCALLIONS

Steps:

• In a 10-12 inch non-stick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot.
• Add the scallions and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are just golden, with some green still visible on the scallions, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat, and with a slotted spoon, transfer the vegetables to paper towels to drain, (leave oil in the skillet).
• Toss the ginger and scallions lightly with salt.
• Line up three wide, shallow dishes. Put the flour in the first; beat the egg in the second; put the chopped peanuts in the third.
• Season the tilapia fillets lightly with salt.
• Dredge one fillet in the flour shaking off the excess. Dip the fillet in the egg, then coat it with peanuts. Set aside on a plate.
• Repeat previous step with the second fillet.
• Reheat the oil in the skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add the tilapia fillets and cook until golden on each side and the flesh is opaque and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes on each side, (reduce heat if they brown too fast).
• Put the tilapia on dinner plates, and sprinkle with pepper to taste, and top with the frizzled vegetables , and serve immediately.

ASIAN GLAZED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Sprinkle each side of the fish with salt and pepper.
• Coat a sautée pan with Olive Oil or your favorite cooking oil. I find that a non-stick pan works best for cooking this delicate fish.
• Prepare the glaze by mixing equal parts Hoisin with Soy sauce. The hoisin is thicker and sweeter giving balance to the soy. You won't need that much for glazing the fish so you can use the remainder to toss in with your noodles if you want.
• Brush the tops of each of the fish with the glaze and lay that side down on the pan allowing the glaze to form a seared on crust.
• Brush the other side of the fish with glaze before flipping.
• Each side takes about 4-6 minutes depending on how thick your filet is. I had big meaty ones so total cooking time was about 15 minutes. If you are unsure whether they are done, make a small cut into the the thickest part of the fish. If the cut is easy to make and the fish flakes, then it's done. If it's hard to pierce with a fork or seems tough, give it a few more minutes. You may have to flip the fish in order to keep it from burning if you are cooking thicker pieces and need the extra time. You may also want to cover the pan with a lid and let the steam help you out.
• Serve on a bed of asian noodles or alone. It's sure to be a crowd pleaser for those that enjoy seafood, and even those who don't!

ASIAN-STYLE GRILLED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Combine the soy sauce, sugar, garlic, lime juice, ginger and red pepper flakes in a wide, shallow baking pan that will hold all of the fish in a single layer.
• Stir briefly to dissolve the sugar.
• Add the tilapia, then turn it over so that it's coated all over with the marinade.
• Set aside for 20 min or so.
• Heat the broiler to high, and move the oven rack to position closest to heat.
• Slide the pan into the oven, and broil the fish for 5 minute Keep the oven door ajar so the broiler element stays lit.
• Turn the pan around (back to front), and broil for 5 more minute.
• If the juices in the pan appear to burn, add a little water to the dry spot to prevent burning.
• The fish should be opaque and flaky.
• Spoon the sauce over the fish when serving.

ASIAN CILANTRO TILAPIA #RSC

Steps:

• Preheat oven 375.
• Make the marinade. Make sure to only use 3Tbsp of the sesame oil. This should make a little over 3/4cup of sauce but out of that put aside 1/4 cup for the veggies and the rest is needed for the fish.
• Add in all the veggies and a handful of cilantro in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle in Salt/pepper, LEMON ZEST, 1/4 cup of the marinade and toss. Put to the side.
• Lay down the REYNOLDS FOIL in the baking dish.
• Pour the other part of the sesame oil (3Tbsp).
• Lay the TILAPIA and you can overlap the thinner sides.
• Pour the remaining part of the marinade over the fish.
• Spread the veggie mixture covering the fish.
