    I’ve never prepared tilapia, but it’s an interesting choice to leave the head on

      It’s usually how you’ll buy the whole fish - some people may eat the cheeks or other bits but it’s fine to just grab the body meat.

      It’s much, much easier to debone after cooking.

      I just followed the first Google result for heat and timing. I scored the top, put half a sliced lemon inside with dill and brushed on chilli powder mixed with oil, cinnamon and ginger and some other stuff

        Thank you. That looks like about 420F baked for maybe 10-15 minutes each side? I want to know how you got that beautiful colour on it, perhaps the ingredients had a part to play in that
