Italian Dijon Tilapia

I read an article the other day that discussed all the great things about eating fish.  It’s low fat, it’s high in protein, etc. etc.  Most everyone knows fish is good for you.  Then it said that most people very rarely eat fish, and it is not as large a part of our diet as it should be.  More specifically, it said that most people only eat fish at restaurants, and even then it is uncommon.

Is this true?  What about you, dear readers?  How often do you eat fish?  I ask because that article surprised me a bit.  I mean, we eat fish at least once a week.  We love it so much, we are practically seafoodophiles (yes I made that word up).  Now granted, I know fish is expensive.  And that’s exactly why we don’t buy fresh fish or shrimp, but instead we buy the frozen bags of it.  I know it has an affect on the flavor, but unless you’re a seafood aFISHianado (haha see what I did there?), it doesn’t seem like a big deal to go with the frozen.

Anyways, we really liked this dish’s crispy coating and it’s Italian-inspired flavor.  I also love that it’s so quick and easy to make, with only a few ingredients.  My one complaint is that pretty much all of my tilapia dishes look the same. I’d like some variety in my pictures, ya know?  Oh well, they’re all delicious so just pick one :-).
