Default Lobster, Crab, and Tilapia
I am not much of a fish eater, but would like to know how to prepare tilapia!


Also, I love crab and lobster but have only had it with butter, how do you fix it on this diet?

Boil or broil! Like everything else! LOL. We use a "dry rub" on the Tilapia and Mahi-mahi, and grill it on the Geroge Forman. Nice crust on the outside, fflakey and moist on the inside.

tntopo, I do tilapia on my George Forman grill. I spice it up really well, lots of pepper, garlic powder, a touch of chili powder, and lots of paprika... so much so that when it's grilled it looks almost blackened, but instead of black, it's red because of the paprika. Cook it on George Forman Grill until its flaky, not dry but a little flaky. (Grills can differ) It's my favorite fish, I luv it! U can grill sweet onions using the same spices right beside the fish and your meals done! One of my go-to meals! I fix shrimp the very same way. On this protocol it's all about the spices! Enjoy!

I bake mine. I put parchement paper on a pan and put my fish on it then I sprinkle a little salt and peper and cajun spice I have. Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes until you can flake the biggest (middle) part of the fist with a light twist of a fork. Had it last night dinner with asparagus, then for lunch with a salad! love it.

I crush a grissini stick in a bag, add cayenne, salt, pepper and maybe some onion powder
I dip the fish in 1TBS milk and add the fish to the bag and shake it around (The original recipe I found online had you use an egg white instead of milk)
Put it in the toaster oven on 350
Put a little lemon juice on it when its done.

Tastes like an awesome fish fry. I love it.

Tilapia is great baked in a glass baking dish with a heavy coating of Ms. Dash lemon pepper seasoning. It's bakes similar to a crust at 375. Delish!

I do the Foreman Grill too for Tilapia. Some pepper and onion powder ... takes just a few minutes. Then squeeze lemon on it when it's done. I really think it tastes good. Something different than chicken!

We use it to make ceviche sometimes (use lemon instead of lime for P2) Tilapia is not really strong, so it will take on pretty much any flavoring you add.

I use my Foreman Grill or just broil in the oven. Sometimes I use lemon pepper and onion powder, other times I use garlic salt, chili powder and pepper. When I get to P4, I'm making fish taco's with tilapia- yum! shredded cabbage with lemon juice, fresh pico de gallo, sharp cheddar cheese, tilapia grilled with chili powder, garlic salt, cumin & pepper.

I use the ziploc steam bags, 1 minute and you have steamed talapia, and then add what ever seasoning you like! I put some home made pico on it alot of times. I find myself eating this alot since I can prepare it at work

That's a great idea ... I am getting really tired of cold food at lunch. That would be a great, easy option! Thanks!

I made a 'sauce' of yellow mustard, dill, garlic, sea salt and pepper and thinned it out with water. Then I drizzled it on the tilapia and wrapped them in foil and baked it in the oven. Really adds a nice flavor to the fish.

I put the juice of one lemon on a piece of foil, put the fish down, sprinkle the tilapia with salt, pepper, garlic, and onion powder, wrap it up in a little packet, and bake at 425 for 15 minutes. delish!

I don't eat fish, so I can't help you on that one, but when I have crab or lobster I steam it and dip it into a butter extract/water mixture. You can get butter extract in your baking aisle, it's really nothing more than a light flavoring. But I would mix it up with a little bit of water and a tiny bit of salt and granulated garlic, so it's kind of like a nice dipping sauce. Not exactly the real thing, but I felt like it did the trick, was nice and tasty!
