Whats the best way to cook tilapia?

maybe for good fish but I can promise you shit tilapia from china you don't want to make into ceviche! I CAN PROMISE YOU THAT

Ceviche.

4lbs filet chopped in 1/4" cubes
4 tomatoes same chop size.
2 onions same chop.
12 serranos fine chop.
4 jalapenos in vinegar and 1/8 cup of juice
large bunch of fresh chopped cilantro
1 lb shrimp or seafood mix
15 squeezed limes
salt
crackers or tortilla chips
Chop fish and shrimp and wash well. Add onions, chilis and limes.
Let lime cook the fish. 45 minutes
Add salt to taste tomato and cilantro

Eat on crackers or chips. Baked scoops are my fave. Add some valentina salsa or Evoo or chopped avacodo to bowl you eat from not the large bowl.

DO NOT COOK FISH. The lime will finish that for you.

I lived in old Mexico for 6 years, tilapia are shit eaters as are many fish. As long as they don't have any visible worms in the filets I don't sweat it. Course I have eaten pork ceviche also so I may be able to eat stuff that would kill 99.999% of Americans. Of course I had the shits for 6 years in Mexico also.

Most tilapia grown in the US eats fish shit. They clean up after other fish that are being raised . I would worry about heavy metals or other contaminates more than overall cleanliness. The tilapia we caught in Mexico did taste better than the US frozen ones tho. Of course any fish that's squirmin while you filet it is better.

catfish filets beat tilapia IMO. But if you have to eat tilapia, microwave dish with olive oil in bottom, a little kosher salt, ground ginger, garlic powder. lightly coat with olive oil on top. Quick, and tastes pretty good.

If going low sodium, leave off the salt, add a tiny bit of No Salt.

I live close to FL, and fresh Red Snapper, grouper or Trigger caught off my own boat cannot be beat :headbang:
