Tips:

  • To ensure the tilapia cooks evenly, make sure the fillets are of uniform thickness. If they are not, use a sharp knife to carefully slice the thicker portions until they are the same thickness as the thinner portions.
  • For a more flavorful dish, marinate the tilapia fillets in the lemon-herb mixture for at least 30 minutes before grilling. This will allow the flavors to penetrate the fish and create a delicious crust.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the tilapia fillets in a grill pan over medium heat. Just be sure to grease the pan well to prevent the fish from sticking.
  • To check if the tilapia is cooked through, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If the fish flakes easily and is opaque throughout, it is cooked through.
  • Serve the grilled lemon-parmesan tilapia with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.
