Happy Friday my sweet friends! We love to fish here in our home. Whenever we venture out on one of our “date nights”, the nut encrusted fish entrée found on the menu always catches my eye and often becomes my choice for the evening.
I am always on the look out to find recipes to change up my home cooking and this macadamia encrusted tilapia was a hit at our house this week. It definitely made its way onto our “food favorites” list!
Macadamia Encrusted Tilapia with Remoulade Sauce
In just a matter of minutes, you can be enjoying this wonderful dish.
Gather together your ingredients:
4 tilapia fillets
1 ½ cup macadamia nuts
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoon garlic
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 ½ tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon black pepper
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and line your baking dish with aluminum foil.
In a food processor, combine all of the ingredients except for the tilapia and blend until the mixture becomes paste-like.
If you need a touch more olive oi,l feel free to add.
Place your fish on the baking dish and spoon the mixture over the tilapia fillets, making a thick layer.
Place the tilapia into the oven and cook until the fish fillets easily flake, about 10 minutes. Turn the oven on broil and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the macadamia mixture just begins to brown. Note: keep a constant eye on the fish as it broils to avoid burning …. I learned this the hard way! (Insert smiley face)
My husband loves remoulade sauce with his fish, so while the tialpia was cooking, we whipped up this tasty version of the sauce.
Whisk together:
1 cup mayonnaise
½ cup milk
¼ cup sliced green onions
2 tablespoons brown mustard
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons lemon juice
½ teaspoon seafood seasoning
¼ – ½ teaspoon hot sauce.
After the tilapias had finished cooking, we spooned a little of the remoulade sauce over the fish and enjoyed this delicious dish. The tilapia was so tender and the macadamia nut mixture created a perfect taste!
Hope you enjoy this as much as we did!

I like how you used macadamia nuts. I bet it makes the fish great.
It is wonderful Heidi!
I always have macadamia nuts in my pantry and this is a great way for me to use them up before they go rancid. Thanks for sharing on Merry Monday. Pinned.
