Tilapia with sauce
Description
The recipe won't take much time. It's very tasty, simple, and quick. You can buy fillets already prepared, or neatly fillet a whole fish and use the leftovers, for example, to make fish soup or fish broth. Tilapia is an undemanding fish, so it goes well with any sauce: vegetable, fruit, berry, creamy, or garlic. Serve hot.

Step 1
1. I already have ready tilapia fillets, so I first thaw them in the refrigerator, then at room temperature. I thoroughly rinse the fish and pat it dry with a paper towel.
