Cooking Frozen Tilapia
Cook time will vary depending on the size filets you have of course. Sometimes they are whole like you see here, others have been cut in half so keep that in mind. If you are staying in a small space without a lot of appliances you can actually cook frozen fish in a microwave! We will start with that method.
How to Bake Frozen Tilapia
Baking frozen fish actually turns out really well. It isn’t just for this type of white fish either, you can do it with any type of fillet.
What temperature should frozen tilapia be cooked to?
You do not want to overcook fish, that is my worst pet peeve. The thickest part should reach a safe 140 degrees F and remember that when it rests it will rise another 5 degrees or so too. Using a meat thermometer is helpful to get it just right.
How long does frozen tilapia take to cook?
That depends on how large your pieces are. The typical cook time will range from 20-25 minutes or so until the middle is white and can be cut easily with a fork. Flaky and tender is ideal.
Now we are going to talk about frozen fish baked in the oven. Most of us have one of these in our houses and unless it is super hot outside it is my method of choice for this.
I will share a few ideas we love to pair with fish recipes in general below. Of course there are many others, just choose those that cook at 375 for about 20 minutes too.

Line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper so it doesn’t stick and lends to an easier clean up too. You only need a few ingredients and seasonings of your choice to make this healthy meal. You could easily add another baking sheet on another rack to make side dishes to serve with this.
