Notes
If you like easy recipes with fish, seafood and salmon, you will love this list of salmon and shrimp recipes that I made especially for you.
If you are using frozen tilapia, make sure to fully thaw the fish before cooking with it.
Try to buy filets that are similar in sizing so they cook evenly.
Careful not to overcook the fish as it can dry it out.
Tilapia is done once it flakes easily at the thickest part of the fillet or reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
To store: Store in the fridge for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
To reheat: Gently reheat the fish and sauce on the stovetop when ready to enjoy.
To freeze: Always allow the skillet to cool to room temperature before freezing. Freeze the fish and sauce in an airtight freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
