Five-Spice Tilapia

This was terrific. I love five spice and let it sit on the fish for several minutes before cooking . It cooks up fast so be sure your sides are ready. I had tumeric rice and roasted green beans-both great with the glaze.

Huge fan of the spice on the fish.

Simple, and simply delicious!!!!

Easy to make, knockout taste. Man, this was delicious, and remarkably easy and quick for a weeknight healthy meal. I couldn't find prepared Five Spice powder in my local store so; actually ground up my own using equal parts of all the ingredients and sifted through a sieve. Grilled up some asparagus in the same pan as the fish and served with some brown rice and a sauvignon blanc. Absolutely terrific. Definitely going into regular rotation! Pros: Delicious, healthy, fast Cons: Finding Five Spice!

Overwhelming taste of cloves. My hubby eats anything and of course ate this or shall I say choked it down. I'm so happy so many others enjoyed it, but we didn't... at all. :(Pros: HealthyCons: Terrible tasting.... literally made me nauseous

It's grrrrrrreat!This sweet and savory fish is easy to make and in the two times I've made it all that I've had to go out and buy were the chinese five spice and the tilapia! Great for weeknights and any night!Pros: Delicious, easy to make, very fast, most ingredients are just lying around the house . . .Cons: Would help to put in more vegetables but that you can do yourself.

This recipe is totally tasty!! My husband, who is not fond of fish, raved about how delicious it is!! I mixed the spices in equal amounts in a tsp, and it came out wonderful!! Opal Cons: Combined spices not usually at hand.

So Tasty and Quick This was so easy to make and turned out so tasty. I will definitely make this again. Very flavorful recipe. Pros: Very Easy to Make

Easy and tasty I cooked this on a Saturday night and had it on the table in 20 minutes with rice and broccolini. I read reviews and listened to the advice of others. I seasoned with the five spice liberally and used low sodium soy sauce. It was great. My S.O. enjoyed it as well, but probably not as much as me. I'm changing this to a weeknight rotation and it works well with broccolini/broccoli rabe Pros: Easy, Quick Cons: Need to be comfortable with adapting

Five-Spice Tilapia This was good but I felt the sauce overpowered the fish completely. Tilapia has a delicate flavor better suited to a lighter sauce of butter and a touch of garlic, lemon, s & p. I have used a similar sauce (using honey not brown sugar) on salmon and tuna; it seemed better suited to these types of fillets. Great recipe for someone who doesn't like the taste of fish. Pros: quick, easy Cons: sauce overpowers fish

Busy Moms and Dads Take Note!This is a very easy recipe to make and it is easy on the budget. I will recommend this to everyone because it is delicious, inexpensive, and easy!Pros: Cheep, Easy, and Fast to makeCons: NONE :)

Easy and delish I was so surprised by how flavorful this recipe is, and how easy and quick it is to prepare. The fish was a combo of sweet and savory. I'll definitely make this again. Pros: fast, few ingredients necessary Cons: None

Soy sauce overpowering This dish didn't work for me because the taste of soy sauce/brown sugar mixture was too strong. Couldn't taste the fish..or even the five spice powder. Pros: This dish was very easy to prepare and the fish was perfectly cooked. Cons: The soy sauce mixture did not thicken and the taste overpowered the fish.

A nice change of pace from my usual fish entrees! My family enjoyed this fish dish! It was a nice change from the regular fish recipes in my rotation. And I was happy to put the Five Spice powder in my pantry to good use! I seem to forget it's there sometimes, which is a shame because it's absolutely divine! I doubled the recipe and used Splenda brown sugar blend (but only about 2.5 Tbsp) instead of the regular brown sugar. I left the scallion garnish off, too, as I'm not that fond of them. I wouldn't want to eat this every night, because of the sugar, but it's definitely good enough to make again. Pros: Fast and easy to prepare.

Good Quick recipe to fix. I used to much Chinese 5 Spice, but it was still good. I will try it again with less of the spice or none of it at all. Thank You for sharing it. Pros: Easy Cons: Too Much 5 Spice

Soooo easy and soooo good! I didn't have any 5-spice but I used allspice as someone else said they did along with some cinnamon and northwoods seasoning. I don't think this is anywhere near what the 5-spice tastes like, but it complimented the sauce really well. I made the recipe only for one, so I had a lot of room in the pan so I added some leftover steamed peas and carrots I had from last night, which went great with the sauce as well. I'll definitely make this next time I have tilapia on hand!

Even though I couldn't find Asian 5 spice (I only looked in 2 stores though) this recipe was awesome. I used Allspice instead as a last minute substitution (although I'm not sure they are even similar) but it still tasted awesome. The soy sauce/brown sugar mixture was great and we poured the extra on some vegetables we had stir fried. I can't wait to actually get the correct seasoning and try it again.

I've made this dish several times already, and have decided it'll be part of my regular go-to arsenal of quick, easy, delicious, healthy dinner options. Served it to visiting family this week, and they want the recipe, too!

This was good but I think it could be a little sweeter so I am going to add a little more brown sugar next time. Oh, and I just loved the smell of the five-spice as the fish cooked.
