Tilapia

Side Dish (Optional)

Method

Preparing the Tilapia

  1. 1

    Marinate the Tilapia

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Coat the Tilapia

    Place the tilapia fillets in the marinade and coat evenly. Allow them to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Grilling the Tilapia

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F or 190°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Tilapia

    Once the grill is hot, place the marinated tilapia fillets on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Preparing the Side Dish (Optional)

  1. 5

    Prepare the Asparagus

    While the fish is grilling, rinse the asparagus and trim the ends. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 6

    Grill the Asparagus

    Place the seasoned asparagus on the grill alongside the tilapia. Grill for about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally until tender.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Dish

    Once cooked, remove the tilapia and asparagus from the grill. Serve the tilapia with the grilled asparagus on the side.
