ORANGE TILAPIA

Steps:

• Pour 1 1/2 cups orange juice into a resealable plastic bag. Add tilapia fillets, coat with the juice, squeeze bag to remove excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator 3 hours to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Whisk butter, panko bread crumbs, 3 tablespoons orange juice, garlic, and basil together in a bowl.
• Remove tilapia from the orange juice and shake to remove excess liquid; arrange fillets in a 13x9-inch baking dish. Discard marinade.
• Pour 1/2 cup orange juice over the tilapia fillets. Spread butter mixture over the top of the filets to cover each completely.
• Bake in preheated oven until the liquid is bubbling and the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.

SPICY ORANGE TILAPIA

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and pepper. Coat the tilapia fillets in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
• In a large skillet over moderately high heat, heat 2 tablespoon of the oil until hot but not smoking. Carefully add the fillets and cook for 3 minutes. Flip the fillets and continue cooking until firm to the touch, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter and cover to keep warm.
• Wipe the pan clean, add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, and place over moderate heat. Add the onion and sauté, stirring frequently, until tender, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the orange juice, lemon juice, ginger, and sriracha and bring to a simmer. Whisk in the butter, then remove the sauce from the heat, spoon over the tilapia, and serve immediately.

SPICY ORANGE TILAPIA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Rinse of your fish with water and place in bowl. Heat up coconut oil and then let it cool down a few minutes. Take a spoon and drizzle over fish on both sides. Use your spoon to push the oil over the fish or you can brush it on. My fish was so cold still that the coconut oil hardened on top. LOL
• Prepare your spices and orange juice. Get a piece of parchment paper that you can fit the fish in and fold up the side and ends. Pour half of the seasoning over one fillet. Do the same to the second fillet and then place your orange slices on top of the fish and fold up the parchment paper, so the juices don't run out. Place both fillets on baking sheets.
• Cook fish 12-15 minutes and check on it to see if it is cooked thoroughly. (Be careful, when opening parchment paper as the steam is very hot.)
• When fish is done, you are ready to plate. I used two spatulas to lift it carefully off the parchment paper. I then squeezed just a little more fresh orange on top and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. I like serving this with https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/side/vegetable/broccoli-and-barley.html?p=1
