This is a wonderful fish dish. I wanted to share with you. We eat this sometimes 3 nights a week. I think it is all safe. (you can always ask Kree )  she has tried it.
tilapia fillets (I use 2)
fat-free Italian salad dressing (I use Wishbone)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper (black)
1/4 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1/4 teaspoon cumin
2 1/2 cups water
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
1 cup jasmine rice (uncooked)
Pour your dressing straight from the bottle into the pan, I usually make sure the bottom is covered but not too much, I gave aprox measures here.
Place the fillets on top of the dressing in the pan. Srpinkle with all 4 seasonings (all the measurments I gave are aprox). I usually just sprinkle a generous amount on each fillet. Don't leave out the cumin it is a wonderful addition to the fish.
Saute the fillets on med-low heat aprox 4-5 minutes each side tillfish flakes easy with a fork.
While the fish is slowley cooking, cook the rice,using 2 1/2 cups water and 1 cup rice, with butter, bring to a boil and simmer 15 minutes on low.
Serve the fillet on top of the Jasmine rice. I will usually add more s&p and cumin according to my taste. .

This sounds yummy...but one question...is tilapia a type of white fish? I love old bay seasoning (only tried it once) but you cannot get it in Canada

I just noticed you live in Canada (which is where I was born ) I know here in the Wal Mart you can buy a big box of Tilapia a very nice white fish great very mild taste. It comes in a big blue box and is found in the seafod section. Try that.
