Something fishy
Today's fish dish: Tilapia.
Try this yummy recipe:
Number of filets: Depends on the number of mouths you're feeding
Coat the tilapia filets in a lemon based marinade like Lowry's or "Ken's Lemon and Pepper" then lightly flour the filets, dipping them in flour that has a touch of salt and pepper. In a frying pan (preferably cast iron because that gives it a nice texture while baking/frying), coat the bottom with about a Tablespoon and a half of olive oil. Place the filets in the pan, then take about a half a stick of pure butter and divide it up into little pieces all over the top of the fish (this amount is for five filets). Let it get a bit crispy on top, and watch closely to be sure it doesn't burn. Bake for about twenty minutes at 400 degrees, then turn it and put a little butter on the tops and broil for about five minutes on the top shelf of the oven.
Enjoy!

Sounds yummy-- I usually cook mine with oil, a little vinegar (or lemon juice, and dill.

That sounds good. We have gotten into eating a lot of fish lately.
I am not a big fish fan but I like salmon and tilapia and of course fried unhealthy stuff :) But we won't mention that here.
