  • cup rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp chili pepper flakes
  • 1 tbsp green onions thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp garlic chopped

Fried Fish

  • 1 lb Regal Springs Tilapia tenders
  • 1 tbsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Combine soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, pepper flakes, green onion and garlic in a small bowl and set aside. This can be done up to three days in advance.

  2. Season Tilapia tenders with salt and pepper on all sides.

  3. Beat eggs in a medium bowl.

  4. Heat enough oil in a medium heavy bottom pan to cover the bottom. Oil should just begin to shimmer.

  6. Serve with spicy dipping sauce.
