So I told you how we were starting with eMeals, well we have been doing it for almost a week now and it has been fantastic! I love not thinking about dinner. I just walk over to my eMeals binder where I have printed my recipes and get started with the meal. On Sunday night we had the Pan Fried Tilapia. We have never had tilapia before, so I was nervous and excited. Let me tell you it was FANTASTIC! So I thought I would share the recipe. (I forgot to take a picture so I am borrowing this one.)
Pan Friend Tilapia
- 2 lbs. tilapia filets, thawed
- 2 C flour
- 1 T garlic powder
- 1 T paprika
- 2 limes
- 4 T butter
- 1/2 C olive oil
- 1 t salt
- 1 zip top bag
Combine flour, garlic powder and paprika in a zip top bag. Add fillets, tossing to coat. Melt 1/2 of butter with 1/2 of the oil in skillet over med-hi heat. Cook tilapia, a minutes on each side, until golden and cooked. Do not overcrowd pan. Repeat until all fillets are done. Drain on paper towel and salt lightly. Serve with lime wedges.
We also had it with a loaf of french bread which I sliced, buttered and wrapped in foil and heat in the oven for a few minutes.
I can’t tell you enough how much I love eMeals! What an easy and healthy dish for my family! You can also sign up to get Weekly Dinner Menus with Matching Grocery List.

Ya know, my husband loves Talipa. I usually just bake it in parchment with some olive oil, and seasons. I never think to fry it like this. Next time I make fish, this is what he’s getting.

I’ve never tried tilapia. I like fish as long as it’s mild. The recipe sounds good.

Thinking of dinner usually consumes my time and energy. I like doing it, but I wish it was a twice a week thing.. lol
