Ingredients

• 4 pieces tilapia fillets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill
• 1 whole lemon
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray.

Step 2

Pat the tilapia fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Step 3

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the fillets and use a brush or your hands to evenly coat both sides.

Step 4

Peel and mince the garlic cloves, then sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over the fillets.

Step 5

Finely chop the parsley and dill. Sprinkle the herbs over the fish for a fresh and aromatic flavor.

Step 6

Cut the lemon in half. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the fillets, then slice the remaining half into thin rounds for garnish.

Step 7

Season the fillets with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 8

Place the fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and easily flakes with a fork.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and garnish with the reserved lemon slices.

Step 10

Serve immediately with your choice of side dishes such as rice, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
