- Season the tilapia well. Tilapia is a mild-flavored fish, so it's important to season it well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Cook the tilapia over medium heat. Tilapia cooks quickly, so it's important to cook it over medium heat to prevent it from overcooking.
- Do not overcrowd the pan. When cooking tilapia, do not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly.
- Serve the tilapia immediately. Tilapia is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to preserve the fish's delicate flavor and texture.
