Smoked Honey Glazed Tilapia image

Tried this for a different way to serve Tilapia. Made it up from several different recipes I found online. It really turned out really yummy!!! The salty, spicy, sweet combination with the smoke infusion makes the fish really flavorful. Preparation time includes brine time. I took the advice of the review and cut the salt down from 1 cup to 1/2 cup. I agree, made it a better recipe, thanks for the advice.

Categories     Tilapia

Time 3h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs tilapia fillets
1/2 cup honey
2 teaspoons coarse salt
2 teaspoons cracked black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
olive oil
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup salt
1 quart water

Steps:

  • Dissolve sugar and salt in the water. Stir and dissolve.
  • Add the fillets and refrigerate for minimum of 1 hour and up to 4.
  • About an hour before marinating is complete start up smoker.
  • You are looking for a temperature of about 200 F and no higher than 225°F.
  • Use a good hard wood of your choice. I use pecan most of the time. Alder, hickory, mesquite and cherry are all nice.
  • Mix up the salt, pepper and cayenne.
  • Take out the Fillets, rinse then pat dry.
  • Drizzle olive oil on a platter.
  • Place fish on the platter and slide em around to oil the bottoms.
  • Generously coat the tops only with honey.
  • Sprinkle the mixed seasonings on top only.
  • Place fillets directly on grate of prepared smoker and smoke for 1 hour.

This recipe is a keeper! The smoked honey glaze was the perfect complement to the tilapia, and the fish cooked up perfectly moist and flaky. I will definitely be making this again.
