A while back I picked up some tilapia at Whole Foods during one of their weekly deals promotions. I was thinking I'd just bake it but one of my buddies quickly put an end to that by sending me his special recipe rub for pan frying.
The first batch I made, I didn't realize how quickly the fish would cook and ended up overcooking them (I don't cook fish that often, that should change soon though :P). The 2nd batch came out much better and held together out of the pan much better.
Next time I think I might add some flour and an egg to make sure the rub sticks to the fish a little better. Without the egg, some of the rub ended up flaking off as I turned the fish.
The measurements are approximate, I didn't measure them out this time.
