Fried Tilapia

Fried Tilapia

⏱ Prep: 5 min ⏱ Cook: 15 min

Ingredients

  • 2 piece tilapia (cleaned and scales removed)
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup oil

Instructions

  1. Rub salt all over the fish including the insides.

  2. Heat oil in a wide frying pan

  3. When the oil is hot, put-in the tilapia. Cover the frying pan, but make sure to open it a little so that steam can come out. Fry each side in medium heat for about 6 to 10 minutes. Note: I usually wait until I don’t hear any sound. This means that the liquid is gone and the fish is crisp.

  4. Remove from the pan and arrange in a serving plate.

  5. Serve with your favorite condiments and side dish.

  6. Share and enjoy!
