Comment (by espiat):

 Changed the syntax from excluding strings in double quotes, now excluding
 strings between < and >:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 function tl_custom_search_query($search, $query)
 {
     if (!is_search() || !$query->is_main_query()) {
         return $search;
     }

     global $wpdb;
     $search_query = get_search_query();
     $search_query = $wpdb->esc_like($search_query);

     // Remove the original search condition
     $search = preg_replace("/\({$wpdb->posts}.post_content LIKE
 '%[^%]+%'\)/", "", $search);

     // Add a custom search condition
     $search .=  " AND
 REGEXP_REPLACE(REGEXP_REPLACE({$wpdb->posts}.post_content, '<.+?>', ''),
 '<!-.*?->', '') LIKE '%{$search_query}%'";

     return $search;
 }
 add_filter('posts_search', 'tl_custom_search_query', 10, 2);
 }}}



 PS: The search is one of the fundamental functions in a website and should
 be running without false results.
