One Pan Tilapia Fish Tacos With 5 Minute Mole Food

TILAPIA FISH TACOS

Steps:

• In a nonstick pan, heat over medium high heat the oil and then add the tilapia.
• Season with half the lime juice, salt, cumin and southwest seasoning.
• Once that side is cooked, flip and season, cooking till golden.
• Heat a small pan over medium heat and then spray with cooking spray. Add tortilla, cooking and heating both sides.
• Fill tortilla with a portion of fish and then top with desired toppings.

EASY PAN-FRIED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Dry tilapia fillets and cut each in half. Season each fillet with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Dredge in flour to coat, shaking off excess.
• Melt butter and oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Pan-fry fish quickly, working in batches if needed, until edges appear white, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until easily flaked with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes more. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
• Heat the same pan over medium-high heat. Saute onion until soft, about 5 minutes. Pour white wine into the pan, reduce heat, and let simmer until reduced by about half, 5 to 7 minutes. Drizzle sauce over fish before serving and garnish with capers.

CRISPY FISH TACOS

Steps:

• Cut the fish into 1 1/2-inch chunks. (Reserve 1 fillet and refrigerate for the online Round 2 Recipe, Ceviche.)
• To make the batter, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk in enough water, about 1 to 1 1/2 cups, until the mixture is the consistency of pancake batter.
• Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium heat to 360 degrees F.
• When the oil is hot, working in batches, dip the fish pieces into the batter and carefully add them to the hot oil. Cook the fish until golden brown on both sides and the fish is cooked through, about 4 to 6 minutes total. Remove from the pan and drain on to a sheet tray lined with a paper bag or paper towels.
• To make the sauce, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, hot sauce, lime juice, garlic, and 2 tablespoons cilantro in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
• Wrap the tortillas in a damp towel and microwave on medium for 1 minute to warm. Put about 1/4 cup of the shredded cabbage on each tortilla. Put 3 pieces of the fried fish on top of the cabbage, then top with some sauce. Arrange the tacos on a serving platter and garnish with a sprinkle of cilantro. Serve immediately.

TILAPIA FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Slice the potatoes into 1/2-inch thick wedges. Place in large bowl with olive oil, vinegar salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Toss to coat. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes until potatoes are crisp and tender on the inside.
• In a large pot or fryer heat canola oil to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl combine baking powder, cayenne, paprika, and 2 cups flour. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk in buttermilk and club soda. Dredge the tilapia in the remaining 1/2 cup flour then dip into batter. Carefully drop into the hot oil. Fry in batches for 5 minutes until golden brown and remove to a plate lined with paper towels.
• Serve with fries and a side of tartar sauce.

CHAR GRILLED LEMONGRASS TILAPIA FISH

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Soak the green lemongrass leaves in cold water and set aside.
• Mix together the diced lemongrass, soy sauce, garlic, spring onion, red chile and ginger in a bowl.
• Lay the fish on a chopping board. Create a fillet by using a sharp filleting knife to slice from the spine of the fish down to the belly without cutting the fillet off. Just leave it lying open.
• Now add the lemongrass mixture to the inside of the fish and close the fillet back up.
• Secure the fish by tying it up with the lemongrass leaves. Brush the fish with the vegetable oil, and then char grill the fish, 10 minute per side. Cut the lemongrass leaves and serve.

EASY TILAPIA TACOS

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tilapia fillets and sprinkle with garlic powder and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, turn, and continue cooking until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 more minutes. Break fillets apart with a spatula, remove from the heat, and allow to cool. Wipe skillet clean with a paper towel.
• While fish is cooling, mash avocado in a small bowl for guacamole. Mix in sour cream and season with garlic powder and salt.
• Place 1 tortilla in the cleaned skillet and cook over low heat until warm, about 1 minute. Remove tortilla and set on a plate with the uncooked side facing up. Cover one half of the tortilla with 2 lettuce leaves and salsa. Spread guacamole on the other half, then add 1/4 of the fish. Fold halves together. Repeat to make the remaining tacos.
