13 steps

Ingredients

  • 1- 1/2 pound Tilapia Fillets (or Other Mild Fish; If Buying Tilapia Try To Find It U.S. Farmed)
  • Salt And Pepper For Seasoning Fillets
  • 1 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1/4 cups Canola Oil
  • 8 whole Corn Tortillas

    Watch closely and when the slightest hint of smoke is seen coming off the oil, turn the heat down a bit.

    Take fillets out of the bag and give them a good shake to remove excess flour (you just want a light dusting).

    Gently place fillets in the pan.
  9. 9
    After a few seconds, shake the pan to keep them from sticking.
  10. 10
    Cook 23 minutes, gently flip and shake the pan again to loosen fillets.
