fish and seafood

Sarah's Tilapia

"OK, here it is! My FIRST recipe post to the site, This recipe was given to me by my mom, I have NO idea where she got it, but it is just awesome, simple to make, and it is the ONLY fish my picky, picky 11 year old daughter will eat, she loves it! She actually BEGS me to make it. Update: After reading the reviews, I just want to emphasize the importance of using Panko breadcrumbs in this recipe. It makes a HUGE difference! I also have never baked this fish, so cannot predict the results. For those who have commented that the breading isn't sticking well, I have found that this happens to me as well, when I have used too much of the mustard/mayo combo. A thin coating is best! I hope you all enjoy this recipe, and thanks for taking the time to review it!"

Broiled Steelhead Trout With Rosemary, Lemon and Garlic

"This recipe would also work for many other types of fish, like catfish or salmon, but Steelhead is what I had on hand. So yummy!"

Copycat Red Lobster Nantucket Baked Cod

"A simple, yet flavorful, baked cod perfectly seasoned and topped with tomato slices and Parmesan!"

Still Another Tuna/Pasta Salad

"A tasty tuna salad which is easy to prepare. I frequently make it during the Summer for a light supper, after a day at the pool. Also works well for picnics. Amounts given are estimates, I usually prepare this "by taste"."

Chef Lin Coconut Shrimp

"This is a wonderful sweet and creamy shrimp dish. It makes a great appetizer for a seafood dinner of steamed crab legs and lobster. I (Bird) created this recipe (that I was Inspired by) from a buffet item at Chef Lin's Chinese Buffet in Chattanooga, TN. At Chef Lin's I would grab this up by the bowlful. :)"

Broiled Parmesan Tilapia

"You'll love this fish recipe! I have also made this with other meaty fish fillets too, works well with basa fillets also!"

Charleston Shrimp and Grits

"Classic South Carolina fare."

Shrimp Scampi Garlic Bread

"Turn your favorite side into a full meal with the addition of garlicky shrimp."

Joshua's Favorite Tilapia With Jasmine Rice

"This is my very own creation, I whipped this up one day quite by accident. I call this Joshua's favorite Tilapia, because my husband (like me) could eat this 7 nights a week if we could. This is the easiest way to cook Tilapia, and if you are watching those calories then you need not worry this is extremely low fat, oh and did I mention TO DIE FOR !!! This recipe is SIMPLE with FEW ingredients, but has the potential to add what ever you want. I like it AS IS !"

Cajun Sauteed Shrimp

"Many Cajun shrimp dishes have loads of butter. This is a very tasty version that is much lower in fat. You won't miss it. Serve with French bread and a salad. Fabulous dinner on the table in less than 15 minutes."

Fish Chowder

"This is one of the recipes I adopted -- it's gotten 5 stars all around, so I won't change it, but I wouldn't use margarine or cooking oil -- I would use either light olive oil or unsalted butter. I also might substitute half and half for the milk, to be a little decadent once in a while..."

Alfredo Shrimp Tilapia

"This is my version of Ruby Tuesday's New Orleans Tilapia. Tilapia fillets are baked then topped with alfredo sauce, sauteed red peppers and garlic cooked shrimp. I'm not very good at copycatting recipes, but we had this last night and it was mighty fine."

Pan-Seared Tilapia With Chile Lime Butter

"Nice, fresh-tasting dish that comes together in a snap. Make it even quicker by preparing the chile lime butter ahead of time. It can be made 1 day ahead, covered and chilled. Just make sure to bring to room temperature before using. I like this served atop jasmine rice. -adapted from Gourmet"

Creamed Tuna on Toast

"Quick Meal"

Beer Battered Fish

"A long time favorite I have used for over 25 years, plan ahead the batter needs to sit for one hour before using --- the amounts listed will be enough for 2 pounds of fish, you may double but make certain to prepare two separate recipes in two bowls, do not double into one bowl as the batter will not be as good --- you may wish to add in 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and paprika to the flour mixture for extra flavor and for a little heat add in a pinch of cayenne pepper :)"

Baked Halibut

"Wonderful for a busy day. Delicious!!"
