If this doesn't look appetizing to you, don't worry, it just means that you are still sane.
Actually, it wasn't so bad, I just don't think I'm a huge fan of tilapia. I chose tilapia over cod because that is what was on sale at the time. I've had tilapia since then too, and it wasn't the greatest. I figured out that it was Giant-brand frozen fish that I've been buying for all these meals - I thought it was something fancy; I guess not!
I think my main complaint was my utter inefficiency at preparing this meal. I spent twenty minutes shelling the peanuts that I bought in-shell to save a buck, and then another twenty minutes thawing the fish. No. Not at the same time. Sigh.
By the time I got everything straightened out, the meal itself took about ten minutes to prepare. I dredged the fish through a flour/cayenne mixture, dipped them in some egg whites, and pressed them into the chopped peanuts on one side. Then the fishies went into a buttered pan for about five minutes on both sides. I served this with the leftover salad from the night before. The flavors were decent together, but they probably would have been better if I had run the peanuts through a processor to get a finer coating.
Okay, I spent all day at work, then grocery shopping, then two hours of educational reading....time to relax!!
