need a talipia recipe



Recommended Posts

If you all have never had Tilapia Loins, they are the best! Tilapia filets seem fishy compared to the loins. In Texas I buy them at HEB. I put the frozen loins under the broiler with a sprinkle of lemon pepper, then a squeeze of lime when it comes out. It only takes about 15 minutes from frozen.

I have also used a fat free Miracle Whip mixed with sugar free pickle relish to make a tarter sauce.

I too almost bought a bag this weekend at Sams but since I don't really like fish I put it back. Now I can eat van d camps oven baked fish but it has a batter that kind of helps me tolerate the taste. Now with these recipies I am thinking of going to buy it, it can't hurt ya know. I need to find healthy food that I like I need to get this weight off!

Saute a onion and bacon bits in olive oil until onions are soft to the point of carmelizing. Add the talipia on top of the onion, bacon bit mix and cool about 2-4 minutes on each side until talipia is cooked. The onion bacon bit mixture on top of the fish, very good.

also....

crush up Pork rinds until extremely fine and in the crumbs add italian seasoning (or any seasoning) and mix in the crumbs. dip the talipia into a egg milk combo then dip into the crumbs and place into a frying pan of olive oil and cool. very good

I love tilapia. I have a recipe that is always a winner, especially if you love garlic and flavor.

First, season the tilapia with salt and pepper. Then, heat a couple of tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a pan. Sautee 6 cloves of crushed garlic until lightly brown (this infuses the oil with major flavor) and cook the tilapia, 3-5 minutes on each size. While the pan is still sizzling, add the juice of 1-2 lemons.

The garlic becomes "blackened" but not not burned. The lemo juice helps deglaze and makes a nice "sauce".

Cod or Haddock are my favorite and very mild. I love shell fish, but I have to really concentrate on chewing.

Just thought this might help...

I poach some fish then cool it

then you can shread it with some mayo

and it stays in the frig till needed

you can add any extra seasonings

in my frig now is made with salmon

but whiting that they sell in the big 5 lb bags ....poach and then remove the skin

it has a very interesting taste and you can add to that one some sour pickle juice

Talapia fillet is simple to cook in a pan or in oven, and it's not fishy tasting. I use Creole or Cajun Seasoning and Lemon Pepper. I also enjoy Apricot preserve sauce for my fish.

Not sure if anyone has posted a recipe for fish tacos, but I love this one. I got it from the Better Homes & Garden cookbook in the Fish chapter. It's yummy!

Fish tacos

12 oz tilapia filets, defrosted, rinsed, and patted dry, cut into 3/4 inch strips

1/2 tbs. olive oil

1/4 tsp. cumin

1/8 tsp. garlic powder

Mix oil and spices, add fish to coat, then bake in 450 degree F oven for 4-6 minutes, or until flakes with fork.

1.5 cups shredded cabbage or cole slaw mix

2 tbs. mayonaise

1.5 tsp. fresh lime juice

Mix mayonaise and lime juice in bottom of bowl, add cabbage, toss to coat.

Mango salsa

3/4 cup diced ripe mango or peach

2 green onions, finely chopped

1/2 jalapeno, seeded, diced (or more if you like it spicier)

1/3 orange or red bell pepper, seeded, diced

1/4 tsp. fresh lime zest

1.5 tsp. fresh lime juice (or more to taste)

1/2 tbs. olive oil

1.5 tsp. vinegar (I use apple cidar vinegar)

2 tbs. cilantro, finely chopped (optional)

Mix the above ingredients in a bowl.

8 white corn tortillas (may use yellow corn)

Take two paper towels, dampen with Water, place tortillas inside, and microwave for 1 minute, or until heated through.

Serves 4-6 (but if not banded, serves 2-4)

Make the salsa and cabbage mixtures before baking the fish.

Take one (or two) corn tortillas, place on plate. Add a bit of the cabbage mixture, then some fish, and top with salsa. Enjoy!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
