Pasta w/ Tilapia suggestions?

[misleading space shibe]

or recipes.

I have some frozen tilapia fillets I bought from Target awhile ago and I've also had a craving for a pasta dish.
LETS COMBINE THE TWO! biggrin

except I have zero experience cooking fish and the only pasta sauce I know how to make is filipino-style spaghetti sauce. ^___^;

Suggestions & recipes please?
No dairy-heavy recipes though! I can deal with a little bit of dairy in the recipe, but things that are of the likes of an alfredo...icannothas. crying ;

i guess you could try combining the two... cooking them separately... i guess you could try frying the fish first...then add the sauce once its done... biggrin well, I haven't actually tried cooking tilapia with a pasta sauce before... - just shared..

But i did tried frying the fish and using a different sauce on it - my mom thought me, but i forgot how i did it...but it sure tastes delicious...

This is what I would do.

Cook the pasta
Then add broccoli, Spinach, or some kind of green. Make sure to mix it around.

The fish I would cook in butter and lemon until it became like a sauce.

Stick the fish right on top of the pasta, add a spring of parsley for looks and there ya go.

Personally I think rice would go better with a light fish like that.

Try this?

fresh talapia would be better

this sounds yummy. :O I'll try it.

What fish do you think would go with pasta? I only got tilapia 'cause I know I like it. All the other fishes I've eaten are prepared in Filipino soups & stuff. ^__^;

Well...it's hard to say, because usually fish and pasta is prepared with white (dairy heavy) sauces.

Salmon with alfredo or something like that.

But I think a lot of shellfish (clam, shrimp, scallops) would be good in either a olive oil/garlic/red pepper sauce Example Here or a cajun/spicy red sauce like this Shrimp Arrabbiata

Typically one uses chicken for picatta but here's a tilapia recipe looks yummy!

Tilapia is a pretty neutral fish, and I think it would taste fine in a cream sauce with green vegetables.
