This recipe offers a delightful Thai-inspired dish featuring crispy tilapia fillets topped with a flavorful sauce.
Coat the tilapia fillets evenly with the cornstarch and set them aside.
Ensure the fillets are dry before coating to achieve a crispier texture.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add a bit of oil. Cook the fillets for about 3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Remove and keep warm.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the crispiness of the fillets.
In the same pan, sauté the scallions, garlic, and ginger until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Stir constantly to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the soy sauce, brown sugar, and lime juice to the pan. Simmer the mixture until it thickens slightly, about 3 minutes.
Adjust the sweetness and tanginess by varying the sugar and lime juice.
Pour the sauce over the cooked tilapia fillets and garnish with sliced chili, cilantro leaves, and lime wedges.
Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its best.
