Instructions

1. Pat the tilapia fillets dry with paper towels.
2. In a small bowl, mix ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, the garlic powder and smoked paprika. Rub the mix evenly over both sides of the fish.
3. Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. If the skillet is smaller, use 1 tablespoon oil and cook 2 fillets at a time.
4. Cook the fillets 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown on each side.
5. Move the fish to a serving platter.
6. Melt the butter in a light-coloured skillet over medium heat, then keep cooking until it turns light brown.
7. Lower the heat to low, add the grated garlic and stir for about 30 seconds.
8. Take the skillet off the heat and stir in the lemon juice, ¼ teaspoon salt and ⅛ teaspoon black pepper.
9. Pour the lemon butter sauce over the fish, sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve warm.
