So I bought tilapia monday and did this with it:
In large sautee pan:
appx 1/2 cup white wine(with lemon flavor added)
1/4 stick butter
dropped in some shell on shrimp I had in the freezer, cooked until partially pink
added 1 small jar mushrooms, 1/2 red bell pepper sliced and then cut in halfs, 1 can diced tomato with green chiles, 1 6oz can tomato sauce, yellow and green baby squash, baby zucchini cut in quarters (all 8oz packages). Placed the tilapia on top and seasoned with thyme and a few good grinds from one of those Mcormick mixed pepper mills. Covered and cooked on med-low until tilapia was done.
Served it over some no. 8 spaghettin, but I think angel hair would have been more appropriate. Don't know what the fuck to call it, but it was damn tasty. At $2.99 a lb I may have to get a little more tilapia and explore it's further possibilities.

Nice, that's real close to how I prepare it that way. It's also good baked. I coat with olive oil, add white pepper and salt, place rosemary twigs and lemon slices on top and let 'er rip in the oven.

I would enjoy this sans tilapia.

sounds good.
my recipe for tilapia:
salt and pepper top of fillets
get pan nice and hot, apply pam
place tilapia, spice side down, in pan
salt and pepper top
fry ~4 minutes
scrape up, reapply pam, and flip
fry ~4 minutes
CRISPY AND DELICIOUS; i usually serve with fried zucchini (also salt and peppered).

I don't dig fish much, but on the few occasions I have, it always included dill. I am surprised and ashamed to find both of these recipes lacking in dill and wish you would reconsider.

Dill is for people who don't really like fish. I love to see beautiful fresh salmon served in hack restaurants smothered in a dill cream sauce. Rosemary is the key..ah yes...Rosemary...

Simple and tasty.
I went camping and trout fishing over the holiday and pulled out a few nice rainbow.
My brother-in-law gave me this tasty campfire recipe:
Filet trout.
in a skillet, fry up four strips of bacon.
remove bacon and crumble.
place bacon along with 1 diced yellow onion and a can of mushrooms in bacon grease. sautee in bacon grease until onions are soft.
tear apart three pieces of white bread and place in the pan. continue to sautee until bread is mushy.
spoon stuffing into filleted trout then wrap stuffed trout in three strips of bacon. Grill stuffed trout for arrox. 15 minutes or until flakey.

Tilapia is the tasiest white fish there is and is the only one I will eat, except for Chilean Sea Bass. Most white meat fish tastes like old smelly fish. Oh, Dover Sole is good too.
The recipe sounds all yummy and shit. |

Not cream, just fresh dill.
Rosemary is like cilantro: strictly for catamites.

baja style fish tacos:
grill tilapia
Heat corn tortillas in dry skillet.
Serve with shreded cabbage, cheese, tomato, onions, cilantro, chopped jalepenos, salsa, fresh lime, hot sauce, etc.
Tilapia is a freshwater fish that is (can be) farmed. I understand is is supposed to be somewhat more environmentally friendly than other fish farming....they are muy bueno.

unfortunately, most salmon you buy is farmed. it is WAY inferior to wild caught salmon.
Much of the salmon sold as wild is in fact farmed. (i can't get the original nytimes article but this has the text...clicky

Dill really is a strong herb to use on fish, unlesss it's a very strong tasting fish the dill is too overpowering. Tilapia may be for you, very light flavor to it, not fishy tasting/smelling. The thyme was really also a little too strong if this were just plain fish, but with the other items in the dish it complemented them well.
On a side note Chilean sea bass isn't even really bass and you should cut down your consumption of it before it becomes endangered. The average chilean "sea bass" needs to live to at least six years before it is large enough to harvest. Because of all the neo-yuppies that have discovered it's light taste and former low price it's getting harder to harvest at the proper age, hence overfishing of it in unregulated waters and possible extinction (there's something about when it spawns too, age-wise, but I don't remember so well).

ghostrider: beautiful fresh salmon
You made this sound especially good somehow so I went and got some and I basically can't stop eating salmon. I'm not even really all that fond of it, I just can't stop eating it. It's like my body has detected some essential oil or mineral inside that it demands. Also I like the really cool flaky nature of the meat.
I no longer buy tilapia except as filler. Now I just buy salmon.

Why does Tilapia, to me, sounds like a part of female genitalia?

I worked at a veterans home in California for a while, and they served salmon all the time in their cafeteria based on research that salmon helps with a whole bunch of geriatric problems (arthritis, Alzheimers, other things starting with the letter "A"). So, you're probably right that your body is telling you something, Vas; listen to it. (Not that I'm inferring that you're geriatric in any way, of course.) |

Meh, I catch my own. Shittily enough, there's no sockeye salmon season this year. 
If I'm in a hurry, I'll just lay out a fillet on some foil, top with about half a sliced onion, half a lemon, a few sprigs of whatever herbs I happen to be growing at the time (rosemary twigs work pretty well, so does thyme), some salt and pepper, wrap the whole bastard up and throw it on the grill until it's done.
If you're camping, cooking salmon on cedar planks around the campfire will get you dirty forest handjobs from everyone you're with. |

Basa is awesome on the barbecue with a drizzle of good olive oil and a dash of black pepper just prior to grilling. If you can find it, finish it with some smoked sea salt and rest it for a couple minutes before serving. I love halibut done the same way.
