Too many people are afraid to cook fish at home. This is a subject I've spoken on before in a very general way. But today I thought I should give a specific, simple example of what I mean.

Because, sometimes simple really is best.

Especially when it comes to a tender and delicate fillet of fish. It takes a light hand a few simple ingredients, but a pan sauteed fish is a beautiful thing to behold.

It’s a method you should master.

In this case tilapia, which is a very delicious and sustainable fish. The Seafood Watch rates it a "best choice"if it is tilapia grown and farmed in the U.S. But please "avoid farmed tilapia from China and Taiwan, where pollution and weak management are common."

Tilapia is a delicate, white (to pinky rose) fleshed fish. It is a very good choice for pan sautéing because it is easy to overcook and benefits from a quick hot pan and all of your attention.

Like I said simple is best.
