Garlicky Lemon Oven-Baked Tilapia
Garlicky Lemon Oven-Baked Tilapia
Tilapia has a very mild fish taste, and is a great way to get those non-fish eaters to love it. We cooked ours in plenty of butter, lemon, and garlic to make it bright and fresh and easy for everyone to enjoy.
Ingreadient
- 4 (6-oz.) tilapia fillets
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 5 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
- Juice and zest from 1/2 lemon
- 1 lemon, sliced into rounds
- Chopped fresh parsley, for serving
Direction
- Preheat oven to 400°. Season tilapia with salt and pepper and place on a small baking sheet.
- Mix together butter, garlic, red pepper flakes, lemon juice, and zest then pour over tilapia. Place lemon rounds on top and around tilapia.
- Bake tilapia until fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
