Tips:

For the best results, use fresh tilapia fillets. Frozen tilapia can be used, but it may not have as much flavor.
If you don't have Creole seasoning, you can make your own by combining paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and salt.
To get a crispy crust on the tilapia, make sure to pat the fillets dry before cooking them.
Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the tilapia. If the pan is too crowded, the fish will not cook evenly.
Serve the tilapia immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include rice, potatoes, or vegetables.
