Nature’s (delicious) blank canvas. | 11 oz (2 servings)
- Fish
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). The nutrition estimates are representative of a 5.5 oz serving

Reviews from our home cooks
This tilapia was some of the best I've had! I'll definitely order it again. It's great cooked in a frying pan with just a little oil, salt, and pepper. Fast and delicious.
Yummy tilapia is good sauteed with a dusting of flour, garlic, salt and pepper.
Needed extra tilapia in order to have enough for a complete dinner with just a little left for lunch.
Had good flavor, cooked up crisp but not dry. Very delicious.
I cooked the tilapia and ate it with the corn dip and blue crackers or blue chips. It was really pretty good. The tilapia was tasted really fresh and it is cooked up nice and tender. I liked it.
I don't know if it's just how I seasoned them up but this was my first time having Tilapia and it was very delicious.
Send ANY recipe for cooking tilapia with it. I've never cooked a fish before and my husband prefers fish over chicken- so i tried to incorporate it into the basalmic fig chicken- it wasn't great. Wasn't awful. Just boring.
Great Tilapia! Wonderful flavor and easy to prepare. Hope to see this again as an add on!
Your tilapia is quite tender, and I liked that it was farmed sustainably.
Great addition to the Blackened Tilapia Lettuce Wraps. I was able to used the blackened seasoning on extra tilapia and still had plenty of flavor.
