JERK TILAPIA
We enjoyed this (almost too easy to post) recipe. We used tilapia but I think other white fish would work equally well just adjusting the cooking time per thickness of fish. Recipe source: local newspaper.

Steps:
- place all ingredients except fish into blender and puree.
- place fish in marinade and allow to set 1 hr up to 1 day.
- cook over med-high heat 3 to 5 minutes on each side.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest tilapia possible. Fresh tilapia will have a firm, slightly springy texture and a mild, sweet flavor. Avoid tilapia that is slimy or has a strong fishy smell.
- Use a good quality jerk seasoning. Jerk seasoning is a blend of spices and herbs that gives tilapia its characteristic flavor. Look for a jerk seasoning that is made with all-natural ingredients and has a good balance of heat and flavor.
- Marinate the tilapia for at least 30 minutes. Marinating the tilapia in the jerk seasoning will help to infuse it with flavor. You can marinate the tilapia for up to 24 hours, but 30 minutes is the minimum amount of time needed to get good flavor.
- Cook the tilapia over medium heat. Cooking the tilapia over medium heat will help to prevent it from drying out. If you cook the tilapia over high heat, it is likely to burn on the outside before it is cooked through on the inside.
- Serve the tilapia with your favorite sides. Jerk tilapia pairs well with a variety of sides, such as rice, beans, vegetables, and salad. You can also top the tilapia with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt.
Conclusion:
Jerk tilapia is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The jerk seasoning gives the tilapia a unique and flavorful taste that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy dinner, give this jerk tilapia recipe a try.
