Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Tilapia with Spiced Olive Oil.
Step 1
In a small bowl, blend together olive oil, lemon-pepper seasoning, ground cumin, paprika, dried mustard, and garlic powder to create a flavorful marinade.
Step 2
Using a pastry brush, generously apply the marinade to one side of each tilapia fillet, then flip them over and coat the other side as well.
Step 3
Wrap the marinated fillets in aluminum foil and let them chill in the refrigerator for an hour, allowing the flavors to infuse.
Step 4
While the fillets are marinating, preheat your outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Prepare a large piece of aluminum foil with cooking spray and place it on the grill.
Step 6
Once ready, carefully transfer the marinated tilapia fillets onto the foil.
Step 7
Grill the fillets for approximately 5 minutes on each side, or until they flake easily with a fork.
Step 8
Remove from the grill and serve immediately for a delightful meal that captures the essence of summer.
Step 9
Enjoy the vibrant flavors and the satisfaction of a perfectly grilled dish!.
