The fish is quite sensitive to the deterioration due to the high activity of water and, especially to a near pH of the neutrality. The application of the heat needs a rigorous control of time and temperature. The objective of this work developed meat of tilapia canned in vegetable edible oil, for the use from the nonstandard raw material, in order to offer a product with high collected value. The meat of tilapia were taken to the daily pay-cooking in fluent steam for approximately 50 minutes, when the oil of covering was next added, when re-drove and been subdued to two thermal treatments respectively of 15 and 30 minutes in autoclave 121°C. After that the microbiological analyses were carried out, chemical-physically and sensory. The microbiological evaluation showed that the products were presenting satisfactory conformable quality to legislation. The pickles of tilapia presented next composition centesimal: moisture 48.4 %; ashes 3.1 %; protein 12.2 %; lipids 32.7 %; chloride 0.8 %. The sensory analysis showed what, did not exist significant difference at the level of 5 % in the different treatments. The test of commercial sterility was carried out also, where two thermal treatments were adapted to maintain the quality of the pickle of tilapia canned. It was ended that, the pickles of tilapia, they presented quality compatible with similar products, confirming the viability of production of this product.
