QUICK AND EASY FLAXSEED BREADED
TILAPIA
 
flax seed meal
tilapia (other fish can be used)
egg
olive oil
lemon

You can buy tilapia frozen and individually packaged. They are deboned and quick to cook.

Heat frying pan on just over medium heat, add olive oil to cover the bottom.

While heating, have tilapia (still packaged) soaking in cold water so they slide out of the package easier. Roll each piece in beaten eggs and roll in flax seed meal.

Put in pan and sprinkle lemon (or lime) juice on top to taste. Cover and cook for 5 minutes, turn over and cook for another 5 minutes. The flax seed keeps in the moisture and it will come out light and fluffy!

The fish came out soft and the perfect texture but man was it bland. Even the generous amount of lemon juice I added did nothing. If you are making it yourself I would suggest adding some salt and pepper to the egg or even to the flax seed to give it some flavor.

I didn't have any lemon or lime on hand so to add some zest I added some store bought "Greek Seasoning". My husband & I both agreed that it was delicious. My toddler didn't say but his clean plate hinted that he thought so as well. :)
