Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds tilapia fillets (3-4 fillets)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 lemon, sliced
1 tablespoon flat leaf parsley, diced, for serving
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Dry fish fillets well. Add them to a baking dish or sheet pan oiled with extra virgin olive oil.
-
Combine salt, pepper and paprika in a small dish. Dust the seasoning mixture over the fish, ensuring a good amount of seasoning on the thickest part of the fillet. Add thinly-sliced lemon to the dish.
-
Bake seasoned tilapia fillets for 10-14 minutes, depending on thickness of the fish. If using an instant-read thermometer, the fish should be nearing 145 degrees internally.
-
Garnish with diced parsley and serve!
