I'm a real fan of Tilapia with so many ways to fix it. Here's another. Delicious! Excellent for those who do not like fish, but need the Omegas.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tilapia didn't turn out crispy at all. It was still good, but it wasn't what I was hoping for.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover tilapia. I made it with some tilapia that I had leftover from dinner the night before, and it was just as good.

I'm not a big fan of tilapia, but this recipe changed my mind. The fish was so moist and flavorful.

This recipe is a great way to get kids to eat fish. My kids loved the crispy coating, and they ate the whole thing.

The tilapia was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

This was my first time cooking tilapia, and I'm so glad I tried this recipe. It was so easy to make, and the fish turned out delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The tilapia is always cooked perfectly, and the crunchy coating is addictive. I love that it's a healthy recipe too.

This tilapia recipe is a keeper! The fish was crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside, and the lemon-herb flavor was amazing. I served it with roasted vegetables and rice, and it was a hit with my family.
