SEASONED SWAI FISH FILLET
I typically do not like fish. However, I love this one! It is light-tasting, and, in my opinion, does not have that 'fishy taste.' I serve this fish with English peas or green beans and wild rice or rice pilaf.

PAN-FRIED SWAI FILLETS
My husband loves fish. Since I am allergic, I don't partake. Swai was on sale at the grocery so we picked some up. Since he has never tried it before, I decided to cook it in a familiar way for him. He devoured it. I served this with honeyed carrots and fried yellow squash.

Steps:
- Cut 2 pounds of Swai fillets into about 1 inch by 1 inch pieces. Sprinkle fish with 1 teaspoon Vegeta seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and mix.
- In a small bowl whisk together 3 tablespoons mayo and 2 eggs. Pour over seasoned fish and mix well. Let it marinade for at least 15 minutes.
- Cover the bottom of the pan with oil and preheat over medium heat. Coat pieces of fish in flour and fry for about 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
- Pour out oil after each batch, wipe the pan with napkins (just please don't burn yourself!), pour more oil in and fry some more. You will have to change the oil after every batch to keep the burned flour sticking to the fish.

Tips:
- Choose fresh swai fillets: Look for fillets that are firm to the touch and have a slightly briny smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong odor.
- Pat the fillets dry: Before cooking, pat the fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help the fillets sear better and prevent them from steaming.
- Season the fillets: Season the fillets with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings before cooking. This will help enhance the flavor of the fish.
- Use a non-stick skillet: A non-stick skillet is the best choice for pan-searing swai fillets. This will help prevent the fillets from sticking to the pan and breaking apart.
- Heat the skillet over medium heat: Heat the skillet over medium heat before adding the fillets. This will help prevent the fillets from burning.
- Cook the fillets for 3-4 minutes per side: Cook the fillets for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. The fish is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve immediately: Serve the pan-seared swai fillets immediately with your favorite sides.
Conclusion:
Pan-seared swai fillets are a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The fish is mild in flavor and flakes easily, making it a great choice for people who are new to eating fish. Swai is also a good source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, making it a healthy choice for your family.
