19 Easy Ways to Cook With Tilapia — Andrew Purcell; Carrie Purcell

If you don't cook with fish a lot but want to start doing it more often, tilapia is a great place to start. The tender white fish is like a gateway drug to cooking with other types of fish. It's a great source of protein; a 4-ounce serving packs a whopping 22 grams of protein. And because it's so lean, it's also really easy to cook with—you can whip up a thin filet on the stove-top in a matter of minutes. It also freezes well—which is why you probably see it appear in frozen meals at the supermarket so often—and it has a mild, versatile flavor that makes it a great addition to all sorts of different recipes.

Embrace the sea with these 19 super easy and healthy tilapia recipes. They're simple, yet fancy, and they'll teach you all the basics you need to know about cooking with fish. With ideas like pistachio-crusted tilapia, cioppino (an Italian fish stew), and hearty sandwiches, you'll be a pro on the subject before you know it.
