Apply a thin layer of Mayo on the top of the fish fillet. Cover with Italian Style bread crumbs, add salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a couple pieces of butter...Then broil in the oven for a few minutes. Watch it very carefully, or it will burn.





And buy fresh! The reason your fish tastes fishy is because it's not fresh!
The easieat way to get rid of some of the fishy taste is to squeeze a lemon over the fish before you cook it.Adds a lot of flavor to your fish too!!
Saute it in a pan with olive oil. Simply cook it on each side for about 4 minutes (or more depending on the thickness). When you flip the fish for the last time, throw in chopped onion or shallot, minced garlic, some olives, a tablespoon or two of lemon juice, 1/2 a cup of crushed or chopped tomatoes (fresh or canned - this will make your sauce), and salt and pepper to taste. Serve the tilapia and sauce over linguine or your favorite style of pasta.





Top with a bit of fresh parmesan or regiano cheese.

Look, this is a great recipe and a very simple and easy one, too. Add garlic powder, powdered cumin (very delicious), juice of half a lemon, salt, and some chopped cilantro to the fish. You can also use dill weed or celery instead of the cilantro, all give a great taste. Now you can simply put the fish in a greased casserole and bake in the oven for 10 minutes, then broil for 5 minutes. you WILL NOT believe the delicious smell!


Also you can bread them and deep-fry them, but it's more healthy to eat them baked. I guarantee they won't taste fishy at all. Hope that helps.
Tilapia Curry (I am assuming that you have about 4 fillets)





1. Take the tilapia fillet/ pieches


2. Marinade for 30 mints with salt, lemon juice, a little garlic paste (this reduces the fishy smell)


3. Fry in medium heat for 5 minutes each side


4. on a different skillet heat up vegetable oil, add 1 onion and fry till golden brown.


5. Add salt, 2 cloves of garlic, 1 table spoon yogurt and 1 cup coconut milk, 1/2 teaspoon red chilli powder.


6. Cook the spices for about 5 minutes and add the fish. Turn down the heat to a low and cover and cook for 5 minutes.


Enjoy.





This is a little thai tasting, but absolutely delicious. If you really don't like the fish smell what so ever, try frying it for about 7-8 minutes each side on low-medium heat.
I love tilapia. It is definitely one of my fave fish dishes. I found the following recipe's online a few months ago and I have personally tried each of them and they were all great. I hope this is what you were looking for! Have a Blessed day! :)





Parmesan Tilapia





1 1/2 cups mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip)


3/4 cup parmesan cheese


1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder


1 1/2 tablespoons black pepper


2 tablespoons mccormick it's a dilly salt-free lemon %26amp; herb seasoning (Lemon-Dill blend)


4-6 tilapia fillets (this recipe will coat 4-8 pieces fish, depending on the size of the pieces)





Mix all ingredients together. If it appears too thick (like really thick paste), add a little extra mayo. If it appears too creamy, add another few shakes of cheese. Like Rachel Ray says, ';Eyeball it';. The consistency will be thick, but still stirable and slightly creamy.


Next, take the fish, one filet at a time, and coat only one side with mixture, making sure you coat the whole side with at least a 1/4 inch worth of mixture.


Place fish (coating side up) in a slightly greased oven dish and bake on lower rack at 350F for 35 minutes. Don't get worried if it browns some; some browning adds to the flavor. When I bake this, it normally gets light brown all over, so don't worry if you see if turning brown.
