- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ to 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions
- Rinse fillets and pat lightly so they are still slightly wet. This will allow the seasoning to stick.
- Mix together the seasonings and coat the tilapia fillets with the seasoning.
