Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh tilapia fillets. If frozen, thaw them completely before cooking.
- Make sure to pat the tilapia fillets dry before searing them. This will help them get a nice crispy skin.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the tilapia fillets. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Be careful not to overcook the tilapia fillets. They should be cooked through but still moist and flakey.
- The citrus ponzu sauce is a great way to add brightness and acidity to the dish. You can also use a store-bought ponzu sauce if you're short on time.
