Recipe type: Tilapia
Cuisine: Japanese
Serves: 10 small pieces
Ingredients
  • 2 fillets Tilapia
  • 8 oz. imitation crab
  • 1 lime
  • 2 tablespoons and 1 teaspoon of Golden Mountain Seasoning Sauce (or light soy sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon Mirin
  • 2 tablespoon light mayonnaise
  • vegetable (or Canola oil)
Instructions
  1. Start with the imitation crab mixture. Cut them into 1-inch long pieces if they come in sticks. Shred them into small strings. Put them in a medium bowl.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of light mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon of fresh lime juice, and 1 teaspoon of light soy sauce (or Golden Mountain sauce). Mix everything together and let it sit.
  3. Next, make the sauce. Mix 2 tablespoons of Golden Mountain Seasoning Sauce, 2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice and 1 teaspoon of Mirin in a small bowl.
  4. Cut Tilapia fillets into big chunks. Add a little bit of vegetable (or canola) oil into a medium pan, medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the fish into the pan. It will take only a few minutes to cook. For thin pieces, flip them after 1 minute. For thicker pieces, 1½ to 2 minutes.
  5. Once both sides are cooked, take them out of the pan and move onto a plate.
  6. Spoon the crab mixture into small portions (same size as each piece of the fish) on a serving plate. Place the fish on the top. Garnish with sliced Jalapeno or Serrano pepper and cilantro leaves.
  7. Heat up the sauce in the microwave for a minute and spoon the sauce around each portion of fish and crab mixture. Itchy Tilapia is ready to be served.
Notes
You can use any fresh white fish such as Sea Bass or Halibut.
