I buy Talipia at Costco all the time and it is very good white meat. I put it in a dish of melted butter sprinkle with Lemon Pepper and Dill and bake for about 30-40 min. when I put it in frozen.

When I see it at Walmart I WILL NOT BUY IT because it has all these red veins or whatever they are and I have NEVER seen them in the ones I get at Costco. I have ordered a Talapia at a restaurant and it did taste awful. They must have bought it from Walmart.

yep! We’ve used up a whole bag of Costco’s tilapia loins, and we have them on the list to buy this week. Very versatile fish, easy to cook in a variety of ways, and I really like that every one is individually sealed in its own bag. No freezer burn and they defrost in minutes in tepid water.

Try dusting them with some Chinese 5-spice powder and baking.

Or any kind of seasoning you like. I do recommend caution using anything too spicy like habeneros, because it will completely overwhelm the flavor of the fish.

Even just a little salt, fresh cracked black pepper and fresh lemon or lime juice...

Good stuff!
