Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Fish

Rinse the tilapia fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2

Sauté the Garlic

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

3

Cook the Tilapia

Add the seasoned tilapia fillets to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

4

Finish with Lemon

Drizzle the lemon juice over the cooked tilapia and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
