A non fussy white fish often overlooked. I wasn't to keen on it at first but last year my girls had it in NY with their Uncle CoCo and raved about it.
Awwal said, mom it was lemony! I figured, I can't go wrong and dove in to try it. It took 2 tries before I perfected it...
Ingredients:-
8-10 Talapia Filets - washed & drained
3 Tbsp of Lemon Pepper - find a low sodium one
3/4 Cup All Purpose Flour - shifted
Veg Oil - enough to cover 1/4 inch in a shallow frying pan
Method:-
In a baking pan lay the filets and sprinkle lemon pepper on both sides and let it rest for about 15-20 mins. Reserving about 1 tbsp of lemon pepper.
Heat a shallow frying pan with about 1/4 inch of oil in it. Mix in the 1 tbsp on lemon pepper in the flour and roll the filets in the flour and shallow fry them about 2-3 mins on each side.
Use your judgment, the filets should be crispy and light brown in color. Remove from oil and keep them warm in the Oven at 170 degrees.
I serve mine with White Rice & Corn Pilaf or Wild Rice! Garnish with lemon wedges.
