About Lemon tilapia

Lemon Tilapia is a light and flavorful dish that highlights the delicate taste of tilapia, a lean white fish. Originating from a mix of Mediterranean and modern culinary influences, this recipe typically features tilapia fillets seasoned with garlic, black pepper, and herbs, then drizzled with fresh lemon juice and baked or pan-seared to perfection. Often paired with olive oil and a garnish of parsley, it’s a refreshing and heart-healthy option. Rich in protein and low in fat, tilapia is an excellent source of essential nutrients like phosphorus, selenium, and B vitamins. When prepared with minimal added fats or sodium, Lemon Tilapia is a healthy choice for those focused on balanced eating. However, moderation is key, as tilapia farmed in certain regions may have varying omega-3 and omega-6 content. For the best nutritional benefits, purchase sustainably sourced tilapia and pair it with wholesome sides like steamed vegetables or quinoa.
