Lemon Herb Pan Seared Tilapia with Garlic Butter Sauce
Enjoy a fresh, restaurant-quality dish featuring tender, pan-seared tilapia fillets complemented by a zesty lemon and herb garlic butter sauce. Each bite bursts with the brightness of lemon, depth of garlic, and aromatic herbs, making it a perfect balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Tilapia Fillet
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Unsalted Butter
1 medium Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh Thyme
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the tilapia fillet dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the tilapia fillet in the pan and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan or side pan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Squeeze the juice of the lemon into the butter and add the fresh thyme and parsley. Reduce the heat to low and let the flavors meld for another 1-2 minutes.
Once the fish is cooked, transfer it to a plate and drizzle the warm garlic butter sauce generously over the top.
Garnish with additional herbs or a slice of lemon if desired, and serve immediately.
