Tilapia Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
Preparation
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Marinating the Fish
Place the tilapia fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Grilling/Frying
If grilling, preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated tilapia on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. If frying, heat some olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the tilapia for about 3-4 minutes on each side.
Serving
Once cooked, remove the tilapia from the grill or skillet, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve with lemon wedges if desired.
