Pat the tilapia fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Place the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 5 minutes until vibrant green and crisp-tender.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the tilapia fillets to the skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the fish from the pan and set aside; reduce the heat to low and add the ghee, lemon juice, lemon zest, and fresh dill to the same skillet.
Whisk the sauce for 1 minute until the ghee is melted and the flavors are infused, then pour it over the fish.
Serve the pan-seared tilapia immediately alongside the steamed broccoli and warmed cooked quinoa.
