Provided by GoodCook8900

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 14m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tilapia fillets
3 buns
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine, softened
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
1/4 teaspoon parsley
1 dash pepper
3 slices lemons
2 teaspoons lemon juice
tomatoes
onion
lettuce

Steps:

  • DO NOT DEFROST TILAPIA. Place the fillets in a large pan or plate and brush with butter on both sides. Add garlic powder, salt, lemon pepper, parsley, and pepper on both sides, as well. For tougher fish, use less butter(may slightly compromise flavor).
  • Place a slice of lemon on each fillet and pour lemon juice on fillets.
  • Wrap all fillets in foil and grill 7-12 minutes depending on heat levels of your grill. I recommend using a George Foreman grill for best results.
  • Slice fillets in half approximately 4-5 minutes while grilling to ensure that they cook thoroughly.
  • Place fillets on slightly toasted bun and add tomatoes, onions, lettuce and mayonnaise or tarter sauce. Enjoy!

CHAR GRILLED LEMONGRASS TILAPIA FISH

Provided by Food Network

Time 35m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 stalks lemongrass, white parts finely diced, long green leaves reserved
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 spring onions, sliced
1 long red chile, sliced
One 1 1/2-inch piece ginger, finely chopped
1 whole tilapia, cleaned
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Soak the green lemongrass leaves in cold water and set aside.
  • Mix together the diced lemongrass, soy sauce, garlic, spring onion, red chile and ginger in a bowl.
  • Lay the fish on a chopping board. Create a fillet by using a sharp filleting knife to slice from the spine of the fish down to the belly without cutting the fillet off. Just leave it lying open.
  • Now add the lemongrass mixture to the inside of the fish and close the fillet back up.
  • Secure the fish by tying it up with the lemongrass leaves. Brush the fish with the vegetable oil, and then char grill the fish, 10 minute per side. Cut the lemongrass leaves and serve.

Tips:

  • For a crispy sandwich, use a sturdy bread that can hold up to the grilled fish and vegetables. A ciabatta roll or a toasted baguette are both good choices.
  • Be sure to season the tilapia fillets with salt and pepper before grilling. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the tilapia fillets in a grill pan over medium heat.
  • The lemon-herb butter is a great way to add flavor to the grilled tilapia. You can also use other types of butter, such as garlic butter or herb butter.
  • If you don't have any fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use half the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh herbs.
  • Serve the grilled tilapia sandwiches with your favorite sides, such as potato chips, coleslaw, or a side salad.

Conclusion:

The grilled lemon-herb tilapia sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. The tilapia is grilled to perfection and the lemon-herb butter adds a refreshing flavor. The sandwich is also packed with vegetables, making it a healthy and satisfying meal.
