Pat the tilapia fillet dry and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add finely minced garlic and allow it to infuse the butter gently; be careful not to burn the garlic.
Squeeze in the juice of 1/2 a lemon and add chopped fresh thyme and parsley to the garlic butter. Stir well and let the sauce simmer on low heat.
In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tilapia fillet and sear for about 3 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
Plate the tilapia and drizzle generously with the garlic butter sauce. Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired and serve immediately.
