Introduction

I have used 4 pcs. (4 oz) each of Tilapia. However, that is a pretty healthy serving. You can use 1 pc., cut it in half and follow the same directions. I have used 4 pcs. (4 oz) each of Tilapia.

    Incredible!
    This is very yummy! I cut the amount of oil in half (it was just fine... I don't believe you need a whole TBSP of oil) and doubled the garlic. I will definitely be making this one again, - 11/2/12
