Steps:
- In food processor, place the vinegar, mustard, shallot, thyme and pasteurized egg yolks. Cover; process until smooth. With the machine running, add the 1 cup pumpkin seed oil and then the 1 cup olive oil, 1 tablespoon at a time. If the mixture gets too thick, add the 1 tablespoon ice water. Season with the salt and pepper. Stir in pumpkin seeds. Refrigerate while making tilapia.
- Place the flour, 2 eggs and the bread crumbs in 3 separate shallow dishes. Dip each fillet in flour then in eggs and finally, dredge on both sides in bread crumbs, shaking off the excess.
- Heat 2 skillets over high heat. Divide 3 tablespoons olive oil evenly between skillets. When hot, add the fish; reduce heat to medium, and cook until nicely browned, about 5 minutes. Turn fish and cook on the second side until the fish is done throughout (test with a fork), about 4 minutes, depending on thickness.
- Transfer the fish to 6 individual plates. Garnish with the lemon wedges. Toss the lettuce with a portion of the dressing; divide among plates of fish. Spoon some of the additional dressing over the fish; sprinkle pomegranate seeds over all, and enjoy.

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!
POMEGRANATE AND LEMON-HERB TILAPIA
Steps:
- Tilapia: 1. Preheat oven to 375°F. 2. Score 1 fresh pomegranates and place in a bowl of water. Break open the pomegranates under water to free the arils (seed sacs). The arils will sink to the bottom of the bowl and the membrane will float to the top. Sieve and put the arils in a separate bowl. Reserve 1/2 cup of the arils from fruit and set aside. Press 2 tablespoons of juice for use with potatoes and set aside. (Refrigerate or freeze remaining arils for another use.) 3. Heat add olive oil and panko in a small skillet. Cook over medium heat and stir until crumbs are lightly browned. 4. Mix browned panko together with parsley, lemon zest, salt and pepper. 5. Dip tilapia fillets in egg beaten with lemon juice and then roll into panko mixture. 6. Place fillets in a greased casserole dish and bake for 20 to 30 minutes. 7. Garnish with more chopped parsley and arils; serve with potatoes.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh herbs and lemon. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount called for in the recipe.
- To make sure the tilapia is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- If you don't have parchment paper, you can grease a baking sheet and cook the tilapia on that instead.
- This recipe is a great way to use up leftover herbs and lemon.
- Serve the tilapia with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
Conclusion:
This pomegranate and lemon herb tilapia recipe is an easy and delicious way to enjoy this healthy fish. The bright flavors of the pomegranate and lemon complement the tilapia perfectly, and the herbs add a touch of freshness. This recipe is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
