This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The tilapia is always crispy and the sauce is always flavorful. I highly recommend it!

I thought this recipe was just okay. The tilapia was cooked well, but the sauce was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra lime juice and chili powder, and it was much better.

This recipe is a great way to cook tilapia! The fish is cooked perfectly and the sauce is delicious. I served it with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes, and it was a delicious meal.

I love the crispy skin on the tilapia! The honey-lime sauce is also delicious. I served it with rice and vegetables, and it was a complete meal.

This recipe was a little too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of honey in the sauce next time.

This recipe was easy to follow and the tilapia turned out great! I used a cast iron skillet to get a nice crispy skin on the fish. The honey-lime sauce was also delicious. I served it with rice and vegetables, and it was a complete meal.

This recipe was a disappointment. The tilapia was dry and the sauce was too sweet. I won't be making this again.

This recipe was a hit with my family! The tilapia was crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside, and the honey-lime sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and sour. I will definitely be making this again.
