Husband Wants Tilapia


Glutenfreefamily

Recommended Posts

Glutenfreefamily Enthusiast

I did find a recipe which sounded good with sour cream bread crumbs and italian seasonings but Im hoping to do it dairy free so our daughter can eat it too. My husband is kinda picky and doesnt like lemon pepper fish so any alternative is much appreciated.

Thanks :)

Why not make the recipe as directed, substituting corn meal or Potato Buds for the bread crumbs and soy sour cream for the sour cream? The soy sour cream is very good--we are not dairy free, but I have used it occasionally and nobody noticed!

Grilled Tilapia-

I found that grilling fish on an outdoor propane grill works good. The initial stink of cooking the fish stays outside. I'm no chef though....

Simply clean and oil the grill. Applying cooking oil to the grill is important, as the fish will stick otherwise. There is a special fish grill available on the market, but I don't use one.

Season the fish with garlic salt (gluten free) on both sides. Cook until fish flakes, that simple.

I have cooked salmon, trout, ahi and mahi mahi this way and my kids love it. Kids usually won't eat fish unless it taste good. Tilapia is white meat and pretty neutral in taste, so it should work well. I will try tilapia this way sometime. Easy cleanup too!

Each piece of tilapia gets its own piece of foil for this recipe .... it's from my memory, so I'm not sure on the timing, but it's 350 degrees.

Place a few spinach leaves in the center of the foil, also some sliced mushrooms. Then the tilapia. Pour olive oil over it (or butter if you can have dairy). Fold the foil up and roll the top so it's sealed. Bake. (I'm guessing around 30 minutes ... if I were doing it, I'd check after 20 minutes and judge how much longer it needs).

You can add seasoning before you close up the foil .... salt, pepper and dill would be good. Lemon juice after it's cooked.

The key with fish is to not overcook it. If it flakes, it's done.

Thanks so much for the ideas/recipes, I have a bunch of it! It was on sale at the grocery and I have so much I'll be trying it a few ways :D

I've really been meaning to try this! Dairy free & gluten free.

I've made a delicious pecan encrusted tilapia.... basically you just need really fine ground pecans, salt and pepper... roll the fish in the pecans, cook in a skillet with a little olive oil, when first side is browned, flip and then place in a 375 oven for about 10 minutes.... done! And it really is good.

Yum! thanks so much, Im saving all of these. My mom wants me to email her a copy of them since she bought it too :lol:

Here's how we like it (I found this by doing a Google search)

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees

1/4 to 1/2 lb of tilapia per person

Rinse the tilapia and place in a shallow glass oven dish

Brush 1 tsp of olive oil on each tilapia filet

Coat each filet with dijon mustard

Crush pecans and cover the filets

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

I was looking through the suggestions for the Tilapia we eat it often and while the Pecan encrusted is really good, it can be fattening. I have found Garbonzo bean flour seasoned with Old Bay seasoning to be one of my favorite. Pan sear it in a small amount of oil until nicely browned.

Good luck,

D

I just sautee the tilapia in margarine with some salt, pepper and garlic rubbed into it and serve with my favorite veggie and white rice. It's one of my I'm starving, need to eat in 10 minutes meals ;)

Thanks :) My husband is anxious to try them soon.

did you foil them on the BBQ? i personally love mushrooms and bet they'd taste good with fish. :D Good to know the recipe was a success! REALLY gotta go get some fish!

Thanks again I'm hoping to make some this weekend. lol about the mushrooms :D I'm not a big fan of mushrooms either.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
