I looking for some different ways to season fishMarinades, sauces, or just dry seasoningNot too much saltAny ideas? Thank you.
Tilapia is a farm raised fish and very mild flavoredUse fresh herbs to enhance the flavor of your fishSeason with sea salt and fresh ground pepper and fresh dillAdd the zest of a medium lemon and 2 tbsp fresh lemon juiceRub into the meatMake a boat or pan out of heavy duty aluminum foilPlace fish in foil and top with thin slices of tomato and onionAdd pats of butter - not margarineSeal the foil packet and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutesOpen the packet and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes - depends on the size of the fish, until opaque and flakyWatch closelyThe flesh should be flaky but very moistServe with a nice salad and pan grilled asparagus You do not want to over season tilapiaBecause it is so mild your seasoning needs to be mild as wellHeavy rubs and marinades will kill the flavor of the fishOther herbs you can experiment with are basil, sage and tarragonGo easy with sageIt has a rather strong but nice flavorEnjoy
