Tips:
- Choose the freshest tilapia fillets you can find. Look for fillets that are firm and have a slightly pink color. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong odor.
- Make sure the tilapia fillets are completely dry before cooking. This will help the herb crust adhere to the fish.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet when cooking the tilapia. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly.
- Use a non-stick skillet to cook the tilapia. This will help prevent the fish from sticking to the pan.
- Cook the tilapia over medium heat until it is cooked through. The fish is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the herb-crusted tilapia with lemon potatoes and your favorite vegetables.

This herb-crusted tilapia with lemon potatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The tilapia is flaky and moist, and the herb crust adds a flavorful crunch.
