Spicy Fried Tilapia

We eat everything in this house- including seafood.  So when I saw my momma came home from the grocery store with a bag full of tilapia, I knew there would be a new blog post in the works.  I love this tilapia recipe because it's a little crunchy from being fried, a little spicy, and the perfect amount of flavor.

So first you need to get your "dipping stations" organized.  

Start off with some bread crumbs, salt, pepper, and of course some HOT red pepper to give it that extra kick.

Eggs, Worcertershire sauce, Frank's Red Hot... just in case it needs a little extra spiciness

Whip it up!

Our fancy dipping station.

And now the fun part- START FRYING!

 They cook super fast.

 Catch 'em while they're hot!
