Tilapia Honduras Style Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse tilapia fillets in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season both sides of each fillet with salt and pepper. Place the flour in a shallow dish; gently press each fillet into the flour to coat and shake off the excess flour.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; cook the tilapia in the hot oil until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes per side. Brush the melted butter onto the tilapia in the last minute before removing from the skillet. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together all dry spices.
• Sprinkle seasonings evenly over both sides of tilapia fillets (this can be done hours before you are ready to cook the fillets).
• In a large skillet, heat olive oil and sauté garlic and onions until just tender.
• In a shallow bowl, whisk eggs well.
• In another shallow bowl, season the flour (or bread crumbs) to taste with salt and pepper.
• Working with only a few pieces at a time, dip seasoned fillets in flour, then in beaten eggs, then again in flour.
• Sauté the fillets in the seasoned oil for 2 minutes on each side, adding more oil if needed.
• Remove to a plate to keep warm and repeat the process until all fillets are cooked.
• Serve immediately.
