  • Pat the tilapia fillets dry before cooking: This will help the seasonings adhere to the fish and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Use a nonstick skillet or baking sheet: This will help prevent the fish from sticking and make it easier to clean up.
  • Cook the tilapia fillets over medium heat: This will help prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Do not overcrowd the skillet or baking sheet: This will help ensure that the fish cooks evenly.
  • Season the tilapia fillets generously: This will help enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Serve the tilapia fillets immediately: This will ensure that the fish is at its best flavor.

Conclusion:

Garlic herb tilapia is a delicious and healthy dish that is easy to make. It is a great option for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
