Preparation

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl add and mix together all of the dry seasoning ingredients. Melt 6 tablespoons of the butter in a shallow dish big enough to dip each tilapia fillet in. Add the other 2 tablespoons of butter to a large frying pan and heat to medium. Dip each fillet into the shallow dish of butter. Rub the seasoning mix on both sides of each fillet. Place in the heated pan and cook each side for 3-5 minutes or until thoroughly cooked and the fish flakes apart easily with a fork. Enjoy!
