Tips:

  • Heat the pan over medium heat before adding the tilapia fillets. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan.
  • Cook the tilapia fillets for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook the fish, as this will make it dry and tough.
  • Serve the pan-fried tilapia with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
  • For a more flavorful dish, you can add a variety of seasonings to the mayonnaise, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • If you don't have mayonnaise, you can use sour cream or Greek yogurt instead.

Conclusion:

The fish is cooked in a flavorful mayonnaise sauce that's made with Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and fresh herbs. Serve the tilapia with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
