Ingredients

Servings
  • 6 about 6 oz each tilapia rinsed and patted dry, or mild white fish like sea bass, grouper, red snapper, rockfish
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • black pepper freshly ground, to taste
  • all-purpose flour
  • vegetable oil for frying
  • 12 corn tortilla

For the sauce:

  • 1/2 cup green onion white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup cilantro chopped leaves
  • 1/4 cup lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon jalapeno chili optional, chopped, or serrano chili
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • kosher salt to taste

Instructions

  1. To make the sauce: combine the green onion, cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, jalopeño, and soy sauce. Set aside for 15 minutes. Season with salt if necessary to taste.
  2. Season the fish fillet with salt and pepper. Coat each fillet with flour lightly.
  3. Heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the fish, in batches to avoid crowding, and sear for about 3 minutes until browned.
  4. Turn and sear another 3 minutes on the other side. The fish is ready when the thickest part is cooked through and it flakes easily with a fork. Transfer the fish to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and keep warm in a lo (250˚F) oven.
  5. Transfer the fish to a platter and pour the sauce on top. Serve with corn tortilla.
