Octavio is the Spanish form of Octavius, derived from the Latin âoctavusâ meaning âeighthâ. Octavius was an ancient Roman family name mainly restricted to the plebian classes until being elevated to patrician status thanks to Emperor Augustus (born Gaius Octavius).
Favorite fillets include catfish, salmon, grouper, red snapper, and tilapia. For fillets or steaks, use a ruler to measure the thickness of the fish before cooking, then bake, uncovered, in the preheated 450 degrees F oven for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness of fish.
To broil tilapia, first marinate the tilapia with olive oil, lemon juice, and spices. Place a large piece of aluminum foil over the broiler pan and turn the broiler on. Place the tilapia on the broiler pan and cook the filet for four to five minutes. Flip the fish once and cook for an additional five minutes until filet is cooked throughout.
