  1. tilapia is the cardboard of fish. it is farm raised, engineered for american tastes so it doesn't taste like fish. go with local goodies in replacement of this non fish fish. cod, sole, dabs, halibut, canadian sea bass, sardines. pike, sea trout. you name it.

  2. I always found Tilapia to be one of the most tasteless fishes out there. It's the fish for people who don't like fish. All you taste is the seasoning that was added to it (like boneless, skinless chicken breasts).

  3. I'm not a fish eater because I don't really like the taste, but I want to get more fish in my diet for health reasons. I made the tilapia recipe with ranch butter instead of the miso. This was my first time frying a raw fish of any kind. It turned out perfectly, like in the video and it was really tasty. No "fishy" taste, just a neutral salty flavor with the butter. I really liked it and it was such a quick meal. I will definitely make it again. I think it would also be great in a bread or bun as a fish sandwich. Thanks for expanding my palate ATK.

  4. Simplest fish recipe: Get 1.5-inch wide strips of salmon, skin-on, descaled, preferably with the belly fat on it. Spray some EVOO, season to taste (do both on both sides … salt and pepper suffice but adding some dry herbs makes it even better). Place the salmon portions, skin up, in a compact or regular oven in the broiler setting, and broil on High for 13-15 minutes depending on desired doneness. That's it! Simplest prep/cook/cleanup ever and it's the most delicious thing you've ever had.

  5. My fave ATK fish recipe of all time is still the pre-made foil wraps that you can do w various fish and various veggies, with a complementary dash of which ever light liquor you want to flavor the sauce. And it's ALL in the foil wrap, I just love it, and when I do fish for guests, it's the only way I do it! Truly one of the best recipes ever – Cheers, All!!!
