I love quick and bright meals like this one-skillet wonder. The way it tastes, you'd think it takes a lot more effort, but it goes from prep to dinner table in half an hour. The recipe works well with any light fish, or even shrimp. -Tammy Brownlow, Dallas, Texas

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my blackened tilapia came out dry and overcooked. The zucchini noodles were also a bit bland.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste, but the blackened tilapia was cooked perfectly. I would probably use less salt next time.
