Keto Oven Baked Tilapia recipe

I’ve started cooking this Oven Baked Tilapia regularly as it’s such a healthy low-carb Keto option and everyone enjoys the buttery, garlicky taste. Tilapia is a white fish, high in protein and bursting with vitamins and minerals, so it’s the fish I buy most often to cook with.

This simple recipe, with only a few ingredients, produces a deliciously tender fish, swimming in tangy lemon, punchy garlic and a little kick of pepper. It’s quick to cook and while it’s in the oven you can make a big salad to go on the side for a great weeknight dinner.
