Ingredients

• 4 pieces Tilapia fillets
• 2 whole Lemon
• 2 teaspoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0 as needed Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with foil and lightly spraying with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Rinse the tilapia fillets under cool water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Zest and juice one of the lemons. Slice the second lemon into thin rounds for later use.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, minced garlic, finely chopped parsley, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

Step 5

Brush the marinade evenly over the top of the tilapia fillets, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 6

Place a few thin slices of lemon on top of each fillet for added flavor and visual appeal.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the tilapia is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately with steamed vegetables or a side salad.
