About Fish, tilapia, cooked, dry heat
Tilapia is a mild, white-fleshed freshwater fish that has become one of the most farmed and affordable fish in the world. Its gentle, almost sweet flavor and flaky texture make it an easy, inexpensive way to put fish on the table.
It's lean and light: high in protein, low in fat and calories, with useful selenium, vitamin B12 and phosphorus. Like other lean white fish it's low in omega-3s compared with oily fish, so it's better thought of as a lean protein than a source of those particular fats.
Quick to cook and easy to like, tilapia takes well to seasoning and sauces — a budget-friendly, everyday fish rather than a special-occasion one.
