Fried Tilapia
Fried Tilapia is a delicious dish made from tilapia fish that has been seasoned, coated in flour or breadcrumbs, and then fried until it turns golden brown and crispy.
Ingredients
- 2 tilapia fish fillets
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well.
- Pat the tilapia fillets dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Dredge each fillet in the flour mixture, coating both sides evenly. Gently shake off any excess flour.
- In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C). You want enough oil to cover the bottom of the skillet.
- Carefully place the coated tilapia fillets in the hot oil. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the fish is golden brown and cooked through.
- Once cooked, transfer the fried tilapia to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the Fried Tilapia hot with lemon wedges on the side for a refreshing citrus twist.
- Enjoy your crispy and flavorful Fried Tilapia!
