Morning All:
A couple of weeks ago did some Tilapia on bed of lemons and EggHatter said that was one to do again...so tonight we did...with a couple of minor modifications.
Still used some Tilapia fillets, but this time on a bed of lime slices with pieces of culantro and a sprinkling of Tsunami Spin...on the small at about 400...
Also cut up a sweet tator for fries...a little EVOO and a sprinkling of Pineapple Head...on one of the Larges...
Here are the finished fries, up close...
And the fish was perfect...
No conversation at dinner as all EggHatter did was "oooooo"..."aahhh"...while she ate.

That looks really nice. Any issues with the fish crumbling and falling through the grate? I am nervous about cooking tilapia because of that. The fries look great.
-
Wendy really liked it on the limes, how did it compare with the lemon cook.
Also which wine did you choose for the fries? :laugh: -
Morning Dave:
Thanks! Using the bed of lime (or lemon) slices helps prevent the fish from falling through the grate...plus it does add some nice flavor.
I don't flip the fish at all...basically you are "baking" the fish.Have a GREAT day!

Jay,
Looks good! Gotta admit the thought went through my mind that with that many lemon slices in that size of a bed at 400 degrees tells me you must be a pretty fast card dealer to get them all down! Thanks for sharing!

Looks great Jay! Did I miss the temp on the fries? Thx.

Fries look awesome, sweet poatoes and the egg- how could you go wrong! And I think I just figured out how I'll use up some of the left over Lake Michigan brown trout from this fall's run.
