Skinny Lemon Tilapia

Skinny Lemon Tilapia is a great fish to serve for a low carb meal! Love pairing this flavorful fish with my favorite steamed veggies and a large green salad! GREAT flavor!
If you’re weary of cooking fish but like the taste, this recipe is especially for you! This no fail fish recipe is delicious served with steamed broccoli and rice (you can add extra cream sauce to the broccoli and rice for better taste). Enjoy!
