So easy! I use this when I need a very quick summer meal.
It is very good as is. Wouldn’t change anything!
It was so absolutely easy & so delicious! Definitely a keeper.
Delicious! Plus it was simple to make! Very fast easy meal. I used my countertop grill and it came out perfect. My intention was to have some leftovers for tomorrow but that didn’t happen. Next time I’ll have to make more. LOL!
Loved this recipe. Think I will try it on other types of fish.
This was so easy and I loved the flavor. A wedge of fresh lemon to drizzle gave it an extra freshness. Great quick healthy meal any day of the week.
Family reviews were unanimous that this was okay but don’t make it again. As a result, I unexpectedly had leftovers. It wasn’t bad, but there are many other ways we have made tilapia that were amazing . Still it was worth trying once.
Tastes great and is good for your food! I’ll make it again, yum!
I cut the recipe down to one fillet. I put all the seasonings in a zip lock baggie with the fish and let it marinate for thirty minutes or so while I prepared the rest of dinner. Grilled it on a cast iron griddle and it turned out wonderful and pretty. I served it over a bed of braised veggies and it made a wonderful, healthy, light meal! Thank you !!
WOW! The hubs really wanted fish and I didn’t want to heat up the house, so I found this recipe. Tilapia is one of our favorites. My 12-yr old son whipped up the seasoning, and the 11-yr old son put in on the fish. I heated up our Traeger grill, and use used our grill mats to cook it up. AMAZING! It is light and tender and juicy…the fish flakes perfectly. We are having it again next week with grilled veggies. This is a great healthy option when you want a quick meal. Thank you for the recipe!
Very flavorful and simple ingredients.
Really good. I cooked it on a George Forman indoor grill , it was quick and easy. Very tasty, I did add a pinch more salt and tossed it on top of some salad
Delicious! Grilled on BBQ grilling mat with grape tomatoes & zucchini. Added some extra garlic & Dijon mustard. Delicious Will definitely make again????
Perfectly easy coating. Added some Cayenne for a kick, and right onto the grill. Very nice flavor.
Nice…and easy! Great for Tilapia. Added a little cayenne pepper to give it that ‘extra spice’.
Cooked recipe as directed. Easy and very tasty. Will plan to make again soon.
Bland, bland, bland. Could really use a few more spices to add some zing. I ended up sprinkling my serving with more salt, cayenne, basil, and thyme just to give it some taste.
Loved this recipe! Didn’t change a thing and my family of 6 loved it as well. I will definitely make this again.
I made this as a single portion on the grill. Omitted the salt but added just a little crushed red peppers instead. Threw on grill with some yellow squash and red potatoes. Wow! What a lunch. Definitely a great recipe and keeper.
I left out the salt and my hubby grilled it on the outdoor grill. It was delicious and will make again!
This was delicious…we first had it alone with a vegetable side. With the leftovers , we made the tilapia into fish tacos and also had enough to use it in a seafood salad. We will definitely make this recipe again…so easy and it was so delicious !!
