Baked tilapia, marinated in garlic and olive oil. If you prefer to grill, get your grill hot and put the fish on aluminum foil; grill until desired doneness is reached.
Baked Tilapia In Garlic And Olive Oil Ingredients
4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
4 cloves crushed garlic
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
teaspoon cayenne pepper
How to Make Baked Tilapia In Garlic And Olive Oil
Rub the fish fillets with the crushed garlic, then place them in a shallow, non-reactive dish. Spoon the olive oil over the fish until they are coated. Place the onion on top of the fish. Cover the fish and refrigerate overnight to allow the fish to soak in the marinade.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
If baking the fish, transfer it to a 9x13 inch baking dish along with the olive oil, garlic, and onion. Sprinkle the fish with the cayenne or white pepper. If you are grilling the fish, wrap the fish and oil, garlic, onion, and pepper in aluminum foil.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees F) for 30 minutes.

Baked Tilapia In Garlic And Olive Oil Reviews
Very tasty I prepared mine a little differently of course, I cant help myself. I sliced my onions thin rather than chopping or dicing. I used a 5 pepper spice blend rather than cayenne. I laid the filets on top of some pre-cooked bacon I had leftover from breakfast.For the ingrediants, I added the oil, garlic, onions, salt and pepper to a small microwaveable container. I mixed these items together and cooked on high for 2 minutes, stirring half way through.I laid the bacon in the casserole dish, the filets on top, then covered with the oil/onion/garlic mix. I refridgerated for only an hour, then added an appropriate amount of 5 spice blend and covered with foil. I baked for the recommended 30 minutes.It was excellent, my husband loved it and so did I Ill definately serve this or any variation of it again
This is my new favorite recipe for Tilapia.I did modify the recipe to suit my taste buds.I didnt marinade this at all.I used my roasted garlic and spread two cloves on each piece of fish, added black pepper and salt. Drizzled olive oil and chili oil (Chinese grocer carry this) on fish. The last thing I added was Pappys Rub on top of the onions (like a canjun spice mix).I used my mandolin slicer to thinly slice the onions.Baked for 30 minutes and broiled another 10 minutes.The onions taste more like onions rings when they are broiled and get crunchy. We ate 6 pieces between the two of us. DEEEEVine.
This was great. I marinated it only about 4 hours and baked it, serving it atop wilted spinach. I used less onion and added some basil. Next time I fix it I will add a little less olive oil (there was a LOT in the dish after cooking). I havent had much luck fixing fish, although I order it frequently when dining out; now this will become a regular at our house
I loved this recipe, however, I made a few minor changes. I minced my garlic and diced my onions very finely. Then I put them in a small bowl (custard cup) and added olive oil and then microwaved it for a minute. The poured that the fish and left it in the fridge for 24 hours. I baked it for 25 minuted regular and then added fresh parmesean cheese for the last 5 minutes. My 3yr old and 2 yr old eat this better than chicken and usually eat more than one piece each. This is a regular on our menu.
This was the first time I have ever had Tilapia. I didnt use as much onion as the recipe called forand I doubled the amount of garlic...and it turned out great.
I added a little fresh lemon juice,and some fresh tyme. I only got to marinate it for an hour. So next time i will definitley marinate longer and add salt and pepper. The kids actually liked it And my husband loved it I will be making this more often now that I found a simple recipe.
This dish was quite bland when I made it according to the directions. I made it another night as we had lots of tilapia from a trip to Costco. I salted BOTH sides of the fish and added Italian seasoning before laying it on the aluminum foil which I brushed with olive oil. I would also recommend tenting the fish with a layer of foil to keep it from drying out. I also went heavier with the garlic - 3 times the amount and gave it a few sprays with "I cant believe its not Butter." It was quite tasty that way.
Very good, basic recipe I added fresh lemon juice and basil. Very adaptable to use with fish other than tilapia. I use this frequently
Time didnt allow for overnight marinating, so I added a tiny dash of onion and garlic powder and this really turned out great Ill make this again and again.
I was short of time so only marinated fish for one hour -- it was excellent. Cant wait to serve this to friends.
This was a little bit too much onion for my taste, but wasnt bad. I dont think I would marinate this for more than an hour and then bake.
This recipe was a big hit. We dont really like onions with our fish, so we left them out. Also, to avoid the overnight portion of this recipe, we skipped the marinade. Instead, we rubbed minced garlic on both sides of the fish and lightly seasoned with salt and pepper. Then we sliced thin pats of butter (about 2-3 tablespoons worth) and laid them over the tilapia before baking. Very easy and came out great. Thanks so much for sharing
I had never made Tilapia before this and this recipe was a hit. I had to make a second pan, my kids and husband loved it. The first pan I let marinate all night, but of course the second went straight to the oven, we couldnt tell a difference. Will probably skip marinating next time.
I make this often, we love it I rarely marinate longer than a few minutes and it still comes out tasty. I used chopped garlic and sprinkle it all over the fish. I disagree with one review- this does NOT need salt. My husband is on a low sodium diet and this is one of the few recipes I love that is no salt.
I LOVE this dish I had never made tilapia before and this was so easy, moist, and delicious. I usually dont have time to marinate over night, so I saute the onions and garlic in the oil and some butter for a few minutes then add to the fish and bake. Its perfection
I was totally surprised by my "meat-and-potatoes" boyfriends reaction to this recipe--he loved it He even asks for it on a regular basis I didnt get to marinate it for more than an hour, but that was just fine. I also seasoned the fish with salt and pepper before baking. A definite keeper
Did not have time to marinate overnight. I used fillet of sole because that is what we like. Put them on a meat platter, sprinkled with garlic powder, Old Bay, and cayenne pepper. Drizzled olive oil over the fillets, put slices of onion on top. Covered with saran wrap and refrigerated for 1 1/2 hrs. It was too hot to use the oven so I turned the grill on outside, med-low. Used a large piece of heavy duty foil and transferred the fish and oil onto to foil, sealed tightly. Cooked on preheated grill for 10 minutes. Great recipe.
I wont make this again - it was a disappointment. Wheres the salt? Wheres the pepper? Wheres the flavor? Fish tastes best when it is fresh; ideally, it should be used the same day it is purchased. Marinating the tilapia did nothing to add to the dishs flavor; it just made the fish another day older.
This is a quick and easy to make dinner. Add a little lemon juice for an extra zing.
Letting the fish sit overnight with the onion made it too stong. The onion was overwhelming.
I couldnt believe how flavorful the fish came out. I only did the garlic and olive oil and served the fish plain with grilled vegetables. It was a great, light meal.
Pretty good. Ive never had tilapia before and chose this recipe. I think I will try tilapia again, but with a different recipe. This was a good place to start though. Very simple. Onions didnt get cooked enough, so we just scraped them off and didnt eat them. Was very tender and easy to eat. My 2 year old loved it
My husband and I have been making our tilapia like this forever. It is the best. Another great way to do it is in a tightly wrapped foil packet on the grill, and we frequently replace or add to the onions with other veggies (green beans, zucchini, etc). Salt makes it even better.
Didnt marinade, just baked it covered in minced garlic, olive oil, a variety of crushed peppers, and topped with diced onion. Awesome
You really gotta like garlic and onion more than fish to like this recipe, I didnt get the bland thing most talked about, all I tasted was garlic & onion. The Broiled Tilipia Parmesan from Phoebe on this site is much better than this recipe, I gave it three stars because my hubby liked it, but I will stick to the other recipe from now on
This was my first time baking with fish, and having Tilapia. My roommate and I both loved the recipe. We didnt have any onion, added a little extra garlic, some basil, and black pepper instead of cayenne pepper. It turned out great
I made this with cod instead of tilapia and added a little more garlic than called for because I love it. I think this is a great recipe. I know others have said it was bland, but I didnt feel that way. It has a light and simple flavor, and is simply delicious
I could not believe something so easy to prepare turned out to be so delicious. It was very well received, and Ill definitely be making this often. I did add a little sea salt.
Very tasty yet simple way to cook tilapia. Yum Ive also sprinkled a bit of parmesean cheese before baking, which is also very good.
Awesome. I didnt marinade because I dont think fish needs to be marinaded. I put the olive oil with melted butter in a baking dish, rubbed the fish on both sides in butter/oil, put lemon juice over all and then sprinkled both side with garlic powder and roasted onion granules and baked as directed. - turned out great
I really liked this recipe, my husband hates fish and he was asking if we could have it again tommorrow I did add my own touch to it though, I only used 1/4 of an onion and i added paprika, a pinch of tyme with some cajun spices I found this gave it a good kick and some wonderfull flavours
Quick and easy to prepare. Read the directions carefully though...towards the bottom of the recipe it says to "refrigerate 8 hours or more"...so much for having it right then and there Delicious I have served this more than once in my house.
I made this recipe in the kitchen and it didnt turn out very well. The vegetables, particularly the onions, were undercooked even though I actually cooked it 5 minutes longer than specified because my wife likes fish well done. As a leftover I scraped the remaining onions off of the fish and cooked them for about 10 minutes in a little olive oil which made them better, but even so it was not a very good dish.
Very good My husband gave rave reviews. Will definitely make again. Being from the South, I added a little more seasoning...just to give a kick. The fish cooked to perfection.
This was the first dish I made from AllRecipes and one of my familys favorites. I stuck strictly to the directions and it came out great. Thank you.
Im loathe to write a poor review, but we didnt care for this very much. Admittedly, it was my first attempt to cook or eat tilapia, and the fish was frozen, so maybe thats to blame, but this was really garlicy, even for a girl who loves garlic.
I didnt have time to marinate and had to substitute an ingredient or two, but even then, it was great This was the first time I baked fish and it was perfect. I further complimented it with a glass of Chardonnay. Thanks
I put my spin on this one I sauteed olive oil,garlic,celery,green pepper and onions. Removed everything but the oil. Placed four Tilapia fillets in the pan and seared both sides. Placed the veggies back into pan and added jar of salsa and 1 1/2 c water. Let it simmer about 20 minutes.Last five minutes I added some blended cheese. It was delicious served over rice with a side salad
I liked the basic recipe. A bit too much onion(maybe I should have chopped it finer?). I cooked it in foil parcels in the oven - delicious
I made this dish the other day and really wasnt too impressed. I thought it had way too much garlic and onion (which I normally love), and it was missing something......maybe salt? My husband on the other hand loved it and thought it was the best fish I ever made After he was finished eating it, he did comment that when I made it again, cut back on the onion a little bit
Very easy and very good. I only marinated for 2hrs and it was perfect.
VERY easy to make. It is a little watery, but it could be because I didnt dry the fish off with a paper towel. The flavor is mild, next time I may add more minced garlic. Quick and easy recipe though
Very tasty recipe
My 80 year old neighbor and my really picky (i dont like fish) teenager both raved about this recipe. We will be making this again...Thank you for sharing.
Very light and easy to cook, fish turned out great
Not overly impressed but I will probably try it again just because my husband liked it
Yuck Thats about all I can say, and Im a big fish lover. Too much onion (& I used half the recipe calls for) and way overpowering taste. Wont be keeping this one.
This was a very quick and easy recipe, but it was kind of bland.
Quick, easy and delicious
I found that the prescribed amount of garlic was too much. The recipe is certainly quick and easy, but I felt that the combination of seasonings did not do justice to this wonderful fish.
The recipe was an ease to make. I ALWAYS, season my foods before cooking or marinating so it didnt come out blan to me at all. The Cayenne pepper was a little overpowering though and will therefore use less of that next time.
Guess what? I didnt have time to marinate, but thought Id go for it anyway. This was delicious, even without the marinating. The cayenne peppper added a wonderful slight zing.
Just wanted to say how wonderful this recipe is my husband is not a big fish fan but he loved this. Thanks for the great recipe:)
Followed recipe pretty much like it said. I used regular pepper. I did grill it on my indoor george foreman look alike grill. It turned out good. Definitely needed some salt though.
Good stuff. Marinated from morning instead of overnight. Husband and I equally enjoyed. Added grated parmesan cheese on top. Served with homemade potato fries and a salad.
Loved it Was very flaky and tender. I chopped the onion along with the garlic and sprinkled it over the filets. I used garlic pepper salt. Also, only marinated for about an hour. Came out great. Will make again many times.
My daughter made it for us. she is 12 and it was great
I really liked this fish. I think maybe I would season it a little more next time. I am cajun and it was a tiny bit bland..I did add some Slap Ya mama cajun seasoning but i probably needed more of that and pepper and cayenne. I served it over parmesan cheese fries and added some parmesan over the fish at serving also. I would make this again I did have to bake it about 10 minutes longer and I am guessing it is from the onions covering the top of the fish.
Kind of bland
Very simple, but somewhat plain, I added lemon juice and fresh herbs for a bit of flavor.
I am in the minority here. I found the flavors were all very strong and didnt blend together well or compliment the fish. Sorry.
Very good--I didnt have cayenne pepper so I used a bit of regular chili powder and regular pepper; it worked wonderfully I might try adjusting with some other spices just for fun. this one is a keeper
Excellent
This is very good and my first experience with Tilapia. Since it is a Mediterranean fish, the garlic and olive oil honors the dish. I did not marinate due to late night dinner and it was still very good. I used minced garlic and dehydrated minced onion which made little crunchy yummies. I also sprinkled on some paprika because I like the way it makes baked/broiled fish taste/look. Will add this to my fish recipe repertoire. (WW=5pt.)
This recipie was delicious I took everyones suggestions and added some extra spices. Oregano and basil gave this an extra kick:)
GREAT recipe.. and I dont even usually like fish, but this was delicious My husband even said this was maybe the best fish hes ever had I did add basil as another reviewer mentioned and topped with Parmesan cheese for the last five minutes. I cant wait to try this recipe again Oh, and I was only able to marinate for about 8 hours, but still tasted great
My first time making this. My family and I enjoyed it so much. Even my picky 9 year old son. We put the tilapia on the grill with the tin foil for apx. 18 minutes. It was cooked to perfection. I will definitely make this again.
I love tilapia and I love easy This dish was perfect and simple - a wonderful vehicle for creativity - I could see tossing some capers in this, a butter/white wine sauce, cilantro, or salsa as someone suggested, mushrooms, zucchini - I personally would use less onion (1/2?) and oil (2T?) and add some salt, but this recipe is absolutely going into regular rotation at my house. Thanks to Letty Ann for the great idea
Good basic recipe
Yummy The cayenne gave it a little heat but not so much my 7 year old didnt eat it. She actually LOVED it
We are big fans of tilapia (and Costco sells it for a great price) so we enjoy trying different ways to eat it. I, too, added tomatoes to my fish while it baked. They soaked up the garlic olive oil marinade as well. A very good and healthy meal.
I am not usually a fish person, but this was great. I didnt even have the cayenne pepper, I cant imagine how good it would have been with it. I served this with couscous, it was a hit with the family.
Very good.
Really great recipe, though I didnt have too much time to marinate and think it would have come out even better if it was left overnight as the recipe suggests. For the onion, I sliced it into thin ringlets, dipped them in the remaining marinade, and coated them with breadcrumbs before laying them over the fish... came out nice and crispy and complimented the fish wonderfully Thanks for this simple, quick recipe
Very good. Added a sprig of fresh rosemary and wrapped my fish two filets to a foil pack. Only took 12 minutes to cook on the grill. Be careful not to overcook.
Two words, OUTSTANDING, WONDERFUL.
This really didnt hit it with us and I am surprised because I thought the taste would be stronger considering the lengthy marinade time. It was rather bland. Sorry Stephen.
This is delicious My husband claims to not like fish but he loved this. I think I cooked a minute or two too long, be careful because it dries out when overcooked. Well definately eat this again
This was great. My husband found this recipe and followed to a "T". Would not change a thing
Did not care for this at all.
First time ever making fish -- this was so easy and good Only marinated 1 hour and reduced the amount of onion, and it still was a bit too much onion for us. Also added some tomato as someone else recommended which was a great addition. Fish was cooked perfectly which was a huge plus for a first-timer. Will make again with less onion and more tomoato. Thank you
This recipe was excellent My roommate thought she had wondered into the wrong house. We were both pleasently suprised. I did alter the recipe a little. I added tomotoes when I baked it. I am going to make it again when my parents come to visit. (they dont think I can cook ;o)
I greatly enjoyed this, despite marinating for only 8 hours or so. I used basa (Vietnamese Catfish) instead of tilapia; being a mild white fish, it works well, too. I dont know why some reviews recommend dumping more spice on; I think it would overwhelm the flavor of the fish.
One of the things which is a factor in the quality of the meal is how it goes over with our kids. Our six year old ate the fish up and asked for seconds, so this is a hit in our houseIt was very simple and most definitely a "company" meal. We grilled it in foil and found it hard to determine the doneness, so we will bake it next time or use a basket on the grill.Were always looking for good, quick fish recipes. THANK YOU
It was an alright dish. It needed more "zing" to the flavor, in my opinion.
Simple, healthy and tasty
Very good and easy. i added prawns, threw in some salt & thyme, and used just 1/2 of an onion. served with roasted potatoes and salad.
The pepper was overpowering
Nice & easy. Took no time at all to throw this together. I subsituted Tilapia with Canadian wild walleye. Very good indeed.
It was good. I only had time to marinte 4 hours. Will marinate longer next time. Also, I added fresh lemon juice.
It was really good. Even my brother ate one, which is loco. I marinated it overnight like the recipe said, but I cut the onions into rings so I could take them off after the fish baked. I loved the cayenne.
I was not a fan of this at all - DH liked it better than I did, but not by much. If you like to taste the fish that youre eating, then this is not the dish for you. We found that the flavour of the onions and garlic completely overpowered the flavour of the fish. Needless to say, this one will be removed from my recipe box.
Be careful with that cayenne
Made as the recipe is written. Fish was edible but needed a lot more spice (according to my familys taste) since Tilapia is a much milder fish.
I love this recipe - I will be making this on a regular basis. I made it as-is. Very good and healthy, great paired with steamed vegetables. Thanks
Awesome recipe Ill be making this again and again. It was so light and healthy, but very tasty and filling.
This was not one of our favorites. My kids ate it but under protest, and I have to admit I filled up on veggies that night.
This dish was so easy and had quite a bit of flavor. First I washed the Tilapia then I coated it with Garlic like it says then I poured the 3 Tsps of olive oil over the the fish making sure it was all coated nicely with the oil. Then I cut up my vidalia onion into chunks like the picture showed sprinkled it with some course sea salt and placed it in the refrigerator for 5 hours to marinate. I left off the black pepper and the cayenne pepper and it still had great flavor. Comments from my dinner guests were "this tastes great" "it is so nice and moist" "I cant believe you did not cover it and it did not burn...". The fish was cooked as said however, I did not transfer from the marinade dish I used the same dish that the fish was marinading in not sure if that made a difference and I also used EVOO olive oil from Chile. Easy and Delicious
This was super I just added a little cajun spice Delicious. I had it with some fresh corn on the cob. Will make this again, great base recipe
