I am planning on making this tomorrow for dinner. My family loves tilapia as well…even the little ones, which is nothing short of a miracle! I have to ask what the side dish is that is pictured – does it have artichokes? It looks delicious! Please let me know if I can find that recipe on your site as well. Thank you!

Do you defrost the Tilapia before placing them on the baking sheet or do you cook them like that frozen?
