Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

  1. 1

    Start the Vegetables

    Halve potatoes lengthwise.

    Place potatoes on prepared baking sheet and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil and garlic salt.

    Spread into a single layer, cut side down, and roast, 10 minutes.

    While potatoes roast, prepare remaining ingredients.

  2. 2

    Prepare Ingredients and Make Romesco Aioli

    Stem, seed, remove ribs, and cut red bell pepper into 1/2" strips.

    Coarsely crush crackers.

    Combine crushed crackers and Parmesan in a mixing bowl. Set aside.

    In another mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise and pesto.

  3. 3

    Finish the Vegetables

    Carefully, remove baking sheet from oven. Add red bell pepper and a pinch of salt and pepper and toss or gently stir to combine. Baking sheet will be hot! Use a utensil.

    Spread into a single layer and roast again until potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender, 8-10 minutes.

    While vegetables roast, prepare and cook tilapia.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Fish

    In another mixing bowl, combine cornstarch and 2 Tbsp. water until cornstarch is dissolved.

    Pat tilapia dry, and season both sides with 1/4 tsp salt and a pinch of pepper.

    Spread cornstarch mixture evenly all over tilapia. Transfer tilapia to bowl with Parmesan-butter crackers and coat fish completely, pressing gently to adhere.

  5. 5

    Fry Fish and Finish Meal

    Line a plate with a paper towel.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 3 Tbsp. olive oil. Add tilapia to hot oil and fry until fish is golden all over and reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-4 minutes per side.

    Gently transfer fish to towel-lined plate.
