I just baked some swai and some tilapia (separately) and they both kind of tasted like fried egg. Any reason this may have happened? I used lemon juice and pepper to season and canola oil cooking spray to coat the baking sheet

That's how they taste and that's also why I'm never gonna buy them again.
Absolute shit-tier fish.

Trash fish. Look at those fillets vs any higher quality fish. You can literally see the difference in quality visually.

Hmmm. Interesting. This only a guess, but maybe you accidently mistook the Oreochromini talapalini (tilapia fish) for the egg of a Gallus gallus (chicken) and cooked said egg unknowingly in place of the fish which you then consumed tasting a fried egg taste. Just for reference, an egg is a round oblong white thing while a fish is a sort of flat, long, squishy thing. Hope that helps :)

They're both pretty flavourless so I think you could only really taste the oil maybe. These fish can both handle a lot of spicing so maybe try a dry rub next time.

Not your fault, tilapia taste like eggs.

Tilapia is ass. Just get whatever is local and fresh instead. If you're landlocked, get the salmon.

Look at these faggots. Can't even flavor fish when they cook it.

Covering your garbage meat in spices doesn't (a) make it good (b) any less of a garbage, shit-eating protein source

Ever had curried tilapia? Fucking delicious. Some would even call it good.

My fish is indeed a round oblong white thing. But that is only because i choose and fashion it to be that way.

If you've never had egg fish you've not even lived.
