Tilapia is one of America's favorite fishes, and for good reason! The mild and flaky fillets shine in pretty much any culinary application. Batter and fry ’em for fish tacos, pan sear and top with zippy chimichurri, coat with buttery breadcrumbs and bake until crispy...the options are endless! Looking to bulk up portion size on one of your weekly meals? Loving the sound of a veggie meal but want some extra protein? Why not add tilapia to your weekly rotation? You’ll be hooked (line and sinker).
