Pan-fried tilapia is a quick and flavorful dish featuring tender, mild-flavored tilapia fillets lightly seasoned and cooked to perfection in a small amount of oil or butter. This versatile recipe, popular in American, Caribbean, and African cuisines, allows for customization with spices like paprika, garlic, or lemon pepper to enhance its flavor. As a lean protein source, tilapia is low in calories and rich in essential nutrients such as vitamin B12, potassium, and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health. However, its lower omega-3 content compared to fattier fish like salmon and the use of added fats during frying should be considered for those monitoring their dietary fat intake. For a balanced meal, pair pan-fried tilapia with whole grains and steamed vegetables to amplify the nutritional benefits.
