Smoked Tilapia Sandwich Recipes

PAN FRIED TILAPIA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Stir together the mayonnaise, onion, tomato, relish, and piri piri in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and set aside.
• Season the tilapia fillets on both sides with the seafood seasoning and garlic powder. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the tilapia fillets until they are golden brown on both sides and no longer translucent in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Place two slices of pepperjack cheese on top of each fillet, cover the skillet, and cook until the cheese has melted.
• Place each tilapia fillet onto a slice of toasted bread, spread with the reserved sauce, then top with the remaining slices of bread.

GRILLED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Mix olive oil, lemon pepper, cumin, paprika, dried mustard, and garlic powder together in a small bowl. Brush each tilapia fillet with mixture using a pastry brush. Flip; brush the other side. Cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Spray a large piece of foil with cooking spray and place on the grill. Transfer tilapia onto the foil.
• Cook fillets on the preheated grill until they're easily flaked with a fork, about 5 minutes per side. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.
• While fish is cooking, heat remaining olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add onions and saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add tomatoes and capers; cook until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Place fish on rolls and top with onion, tomato, and caper mixture.
