TILAPIA WITH CORN SALSA
My family loves fish, and this super fast dish is very popular at my house. Though it tastes as if it takes a long time, it cooks in minutes under the broiler. We like it garnished with lemon wedges and served with couscous on the side. -Brenda Coffey, Singer Island, Florida

Tips:
- Choose fresh tilapia fillets. Look for fillets that are firm and have a mild, slightly sweet smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
- Use a light touch when coating the tilapia fillets in cornmeal. Too much cornmeal will make the crust too thick and dry.
- Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when cooking the tilapia fillets. This will prevent the fillets from cooking evenly.
- Serve the tilapia fillets immediately after cooking. This will ensure that the crust is crispy and the fish is moist and flaky.
Conclusion:
Cornmeal-crusted tilapia with black beans and salsa is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The tilapia is crispy on the outside and moist and flaky on the inside, and the black beans and salsa add a flavorful and healthy touch. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
