What do you serve with tilapia?

Tilapia is a very mild fish and pairs well with anything from a garden salad to a plate of French Fries. I like pairing it with a plate of steamed vegetables.

How much fish do you buy per person? 

The serving size suggests that you figure that each person will eat 6 ounces of fish. So, multiply the number by people, and if you want, leftovers, add some more.

How do you reheat leftover tilapia?

I tend to reheat my leftover fish in the air fryer.

Spray your basket with cooking spray, add your fish and brush the fish with melted butter, and then air fry for 4-5 minutes at 350 degrees F, air fryer setting. Or use the microwave to heat until warmed through.
