How Do You Grill Tilapia Without It Falling Apart?
To grill tilapia without it falling apart, first oil the grill grates and preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Next, pat the tilapia fillets dry with paper towels and brush them with olive oil or melted butter. Place the fillets on the grill grates and cook them for 3-4 minutes per side or until they easily release from the grates and are opaque in the center. Avoid flipping the fillets too soon as this can cause them to stick and fall apart. Use a spatula with a thin edge to gently remove the fillets from the grill.
