Tilapia is a white fish that does't have the "fishy" taste or smell. This fish is very veritable and can be used as a substitute for most fish recipes. This is one reason that my family and friends like this fish.

How To Make roasted tilapia with veggies and lemon

    Toss the olives with the potato mixture; nestle the fish in it. Drizzle the fish with the remaining oil and season with paprika and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
  • Step 4
    Continue to roast until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp and the fish is opaque throughout, 12 to 15 minutes.
