How to Make Jamin S Tilapia With Spicy Dark Sauce
- Pat 2 tilapia fillets dry with paper towels. Season one side with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large frying pan over medium heat.
- Place tilapia fillets, seasoned side down, in the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip the fillets, season the other side with salt and pepper, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until flaky and cooked through.
- Remove the tilapia from the pan and set aside; keep warm.
- Add 2 cloves minced garlic and 1 tablespoon minced ginger to the pan and sauté for 30 seconds.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar.
- Simmer the sauce for 2-3 minutes, tasting and adjusting seasonings as needed (add more soy sauce for saltiness, brown sugar for sweetness, or pepper flakes for heat).
- Increase heat to high. Return the tilapia to the pan and simmer for less than 1 minute to coat in the sauce.
- Once the sauce is thickened and bubbly, turn off the heat.
- Place the tilapia on a plate, drizzle generously with the sauce, and garnish with chopped scallions, cilantro, and tomato slices.
- Serve immediately over jasmine rice.
