Ingredients

  • 1 oz lime juice
  • 4 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsps ground oregano
  • 4 tsps grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsps adobo
  • 1 tsp ground black peppercorns
  • 4 tilapia fillets

Directions

  • Mix the Adobo spice (or you can make your own Adobo spice by combining equal amounts of cumin, onion powder, salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, and turmeric), and oregano.
  • Pre-heat an iron skillet, preferably an iron grilling skillet on medium-high heat. Coat the skillet well with the olive oil.
  • Prepare the fish by rinsing with cold water and pat dry with a paper towel or cloth. Apply the spice mixture to both sides of the tilapia fillets.
  • Add tilapia fillets to the skillet and cook for 6 minutes on each side. Add lime juice to the skillet after the fish is flipped.
  • Grate the ground black peppercorn and lightly sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the tilapia fillets.
  • Place the iron skillet in the oven for 1 minute if you have a broiler, 2-3 minutes otherwise.
  • Remove skillet from the oven and remove the fillets from the skillet. Allow to sit for 2 minutes.
  • Serve fillets with or without a garnish. Best served along with a salad and a small portion of roasted red potatoes.
