Grilled tilapia is a fast and fresh dinner you can have on the table in 10 minutes or less! The delicate fillets are simply seasoned and seared over a hot grill. It’s the perfect lean protein to pair with any side!
Pat down the fish with a paper towel to ensure there is no excess liquid.
Generously rub both sides of the fish with olive oil. Sprinkle the salt and pepper.
Heat the grill to medium/high and ensure the grill is clean. Brush more oil over the top.
Add the fish and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the sides go slightly opaque. Flip the fish and cook for a further 3 minutes.

TO FREEZE: Keep the cooked and cooled fish in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.TO REHEAT: To reheat cooked tilapia without drying it out, it’s easiest to cover it and pop it into the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds.
