How do you like your steaks

[mrt144]

Nonsense.
You can grill it with olive oil and salt to perfect results.
Pan-searing/boiling, yes, olive oil burns up too easily to be effective...

But, I don't pan cook.

If cooked in an oven, the olive oil can still be used... but better for grilling.

this is absolutely correct, except for the boiling part

OK, so rare fish can be safe? Cool

Yes. I think much of the cooking has to do with either handling or to get rid of the icky factor that raw fish has.

For curiosity, do you happen to be aware of what you're supposed to do with Tilapia?

Tilapia is whitefish. I always broil mine until the filet is brilliant white, and the fillet just begins to split. Add sriracha and enjoy, or season beforehand to taste (some kind of cajun seasoning works best for such a bland fish as tilapia).

Here is a great article about what kinds of fish you can eat raw, and how to prepare them. Basically, the key to enjoying raw fish is to use a freezer to kill the parasites since you won't be cooking it.
