Garlic Lemon Baked Tilapia
Ingredients
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • 4 tilapia fillets
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1 dash pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of three seventy-five degrees Fahrenheit, or one ninety zero degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a non-stick baking dish and lightly mist it with cooking spray to prevent food from sticking.
3
Rinse the tilapia fillets under a gentle flow of cool water, and then gently blot them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
4
Carefully position the fillets in the prepared baking dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced and not overlapping.
5
Over the tilapia fillets, carefully pour a generous amount of lemon juice, followed by a drizzle of melted butter. Sprinkle the top with minced garlic, chopped parsley, and a pinch of pepper to add flavor.
6
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, typically taking around thirty minutes.
