Crispy Pan-Fried Red Tilapia Fish Recipe (Cá Diêu Hồng Chiên Giòn)

[Serene]

Super simple yet super tasty!

Sure, here's a recipe for crispy pan-fried red tilapia fish Vietnamese-style:

Ingredients:

• 2 red tilapia fish fillets (you can adjust the quantity depending on your preference)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• Oil for frying (vegetable oil or any oil with a high smoke point)

Instructions:

1. Rinse the tilapia fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. This helps remove any excess moisture, which will ensure a crispier result when frying.
2. In a shallow dish or bowl, combine the minced garlic, fish sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
3. Place the tilapia fillets in the marinade, making sure they are evenly coated. Allow them to marinate for at least 15-20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
4. Heat oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Make sure there is enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan.
5. While the oil is heating, dredge the marinated tilapia fillets in all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess flour.
6. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the coated tilapia fillets in the pan. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan; you may need to fry the fillets in batches.
7. Fry the tilapia fillets for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a spatula to carefully flip them halfway through the cooking process.
8. Once the fillets are cooked through and crispy on both sides, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
9. Serve the crispy pan-fried red tilapia fish hot with steamed rice and your favorite dipping sauce or alongside a fresh salad.

Enjoy your crispy pan-fried red tilapia fish Vietnamese-style!
