Tilapia has taken a bad setback lately. It’s mostly based on where some tilapias are coming from. When you purchase this or any other seafood, you have to shop from a responsible monger or reliable grocery store. I have been purchasing my Tilapia at Whole Foods Market. They source from just three supplier partners, all of whom have passed a third-party audit to ensure that they meet Whole Foods Market rigorous quality standards. Their primary supplier partner is Tropical Aquaculture Inc. Look for the aquaculture logo, Responsibly Farmed at Whole Foods Market stores. If you want just Google for more information. Approximate Prep and Cooking Time: Under 30 Minutes Approximate Cost: $9.69 or $4.85 per serving Difficulty Level: __X _Easy ____ Intermediate ____ Advanced Servings: 2 Ingredients 2 Tilapia stakes ($3.70) 1 tbsp.
