Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Tilapia

    Place the tilapia filets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the filets are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, allow the coals to ash over before placing the fish on the grill.

  2. 4

    Grill the Tilapia

    Remove the filets from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Place the filets on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then carefully flip and grill for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

  3. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the tilapia from the grill and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
