CITRUS BAKED TILAPIA FILLETS

Ingredients

• 4 Diamond Reef® Tilapia Fillets

• 4 Tbsp butter

• 4 garlic cloves, minced

• 2 lemons, zested and then sliced

• 1 Tbsp parsley, chopped

• Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

Thaw and pat dry the tilapia fillets to remove excess moisture. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

Preheat the oven to 425˚F.

Over medium heat, melt the butter in a small pan. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute until it browns. Turn off the heat and add the lemon zest.

Cover the bottom of a medium size oven dish or cast-iron skillet with lemon slices (save some for the top).

Place the tilapia fillets on top of the lemon and pour the garlic butter over the fish. Bake for about 10 minutes or until the fish is cooked through.

Serve topped with lemon slices and fresh parsley.
