Crispy Honey Lime Tilapia

• 4 fresh (or thawed) tilapia filets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon lime zest
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1/3 cup flour I used whole wheat pastry
• 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying
• additional honey + lime zest mixed for drizzling

1. 60 minutes before cooking,season tilapia filets with salt and pepper then lay in a baking dish or into a large ziplock bag. In a bowl, combine olive oil, honey, lime juice and zest, and crushed garlic and whisk until combined. Pour over tilapia and let marinate for an hour. Add flour + a bit more salt, pepper, and lime zest to a bowl and set aside.
2. Heat a cast iron skillet (or a non-stick skillet) over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Dredge each piece of tilapia through the flour until you have a very light coating. Making sure the pan is hot, add tilapia to the oil and cook until flaky and crispy on each side - about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove tilapia from pan and let drain on a paper towel for a few minutes. Serve with an additional drizzle of lime + honey.
