CRISPY TILAPIA TROPICALE

CRISPY TILAPIA TROPICALE is another dish that Tilapia or any fish lovers would enjoy. I personally love Tilapia especially when it is paksiw or fried. Those two fave Tilapia dishes always call for extra rice and ice cold soda. Now let's try this another dish.

salt and pepper
