A delightful and easy-to-make tilapia recipe with a zesty lemon herb flavor.
Heat the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat until melted.
Ensure the butter doesn't brown to maintain its flavor.
Place the tilapia fillets in the pan and season with lemon pepper seasoning and salt.
Season evenly for a balanced taste.
Cook the fillets for 3 minutes on one side, then flip them over.
Use a spatula to flip the fillets gently to avoid breaking them.
Season the other side with lemon pepper seasoning and salt, and cook for another 4 minutes.
Check for doneness by ensuring the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the cooked fillets and garnish with chopped parsley.
Adding lemon juice at the end enhances the fresh flavor.
Serve the tilapia fillets warm with your choice of sides.
Pair with a light salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
