I swear to God this tastes like halibut. And it is out-of-this-world delicious. I always thought that tilapia was supposed to be gross, so who the hell knew this was possible? This recipe BEGS you to get more into fish, I swear.
Ingredients
4 Tilapia filets
1 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 cups flour
1 eggs
1/4 cup water
The Sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
2/3 cup honey
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon corn starch
Instructions
"Mix together the flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish beat the eggs and water. Dip the filets in the egg wash, then the flour, then the egg again, and finally the flour again. Fry in a small amount of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until both sides are browned and the fish flakes with a fork.
Meanwhile cook the garlic and olive oil over medium high heat in a saucepan until slightly browned. Add the honey, vinegar, garlic powder, and soy sauce and whisk over the heat for a few minutes until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is boiling. Whisk in the corn starch and cook just until desired thickness is reached. If it gets thicker than you wanted, add a little water. Pour over fried tilapia."
