Season them with salt, pepper, chili and garlic powders. Dredge in flour. I also toss a little of the seasoning in the flour.<\/p>\n<p>In a large pan, heat the oil. When hot, saute the fillets for about 2 1\/2 &#8211; 3 minutes per side &#8211; depending on the thickness. You want them to be golden. (mmm&#8230;gold&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p>Remove from heat and drizzle with additional lime juice. Spoon the pineapple salsa over the fillets and serve with lime wedges. I served over jasmine rice. YUM. Seriously. YUM.<\/p>\n<p>And takes pretty much no prep or cook time.  And tilapia is generally easy to find so there is no reason to not eat this a LOT!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/a99kitten.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/tilapia.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a99kitten.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/tilapia-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"tilapia\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-9915\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a99kitten.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/tilapia-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/a99kitten.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/tilapia.jpg 642w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is one of my new favorites.
