Drizzle any white fish with Zesty Italian dressing and sprinkle Old Bay and pepper on top. Bake. That's as simple as it gets. Maybe some asparagus and baked potato on the side.

Gotta love the Old Bay.

Fish wish we would give it up for Lent.

Grilled scallops last week, with lime juice, scallions, a tiny bit of butter. Gloriously good.

Don't know any fish recipes. I have found though that using a dry vermouth, instead of a white wine when the recipe calls for it, is a tasty replacement.

I grill or broil some salmon that is just sprinkled with olive oil and seasoning. Then I put it in a salad that has walnuts,gorganzola cheese,rasberry vinagarette and balsamic dressing. Its real simple but is good.

I've been loving fish tacos lately. I cut salmon or some type of white fish (cod or tilapia) into chunks, squeeze lime over it, and bake. Serve in a tortilla with shredded lettuce or cabbage, chopped tomatoes or salsa, more lime juice, and a little sour cream if you like. I've been using coleslaw mix (no dressing, just pre-shredded red and green cabbage) and it's really easy. Mmm.<HR>

Oh that sounds really good. I'm getting the ingredients this weekend. I've been wanting to try fish tacos for a long time but really don't know how to make them. Yummmmm!

The nice thing about tilapia, is the fact that it is not at all "fishy," and basically takes on the flavor of whatever you put on it. For that reason, you need to do something to it, or it is virtually tasteless. It's best broiled, sauteed, or lightly breaded and fried. I have grilled it with mixed results.

It's also extremely clean, cheap, and when you buy it your supporting the American farmers who raise quite a bit of it, which is also a bonus.

I cook a lot of fish and one of my favorite ways to cook Salmon is to bake it while enclosed in parchment paper. Cooking with parchment paper, found in the paper goods aisle of most grocery stores (near saran wrap and aluminum foil) is a great way to keep foods moist and tender. One favorite recipe using salmon and parchment:
Dice a variety of vegetables - anythign you like - I traditionally use some combination of the following (or all of them!!):
Red peppers
Green peppers
Onion
summer squash
zucchini
carrots
Mix veggies together in a bowl with some lemon juice, olive oil, sea salt and or garlic salt and pepper.
Place a portion of vegetable mixture on a piece of parchment paper. Lay piece of salmon on top of mixture. I usually cut a pound of salmon into 3 sections. coat salmon with a little olive oil and any other seasoning you might enjoy.
Wrap the salmon in parchment so that you have a fully enclosed package. Place individual packages in a baking dish. Bake at 400 for approx 25 minutes. This is based on pound of salmon.
The result is a very moist piece of fish with very flavorful veggies that are not overcooked.
