Like others have commented, the fish itself is ok, but it’s the dill sauce that really makes the recipe. For the sauce, I used light mayo, light sour cream, and dried dill. Nice, easy dinner for a weeknight.

Cajun flavor isn't popular in our home, so I followed the suggestion in reviews to season simply with salt and pepper, topped with lemon slices. The dill sauce was very good! Just right with the simple baked fish! I served this with carrots in dill butter (also from this site). A good pairing.

Mmm. Delicious! the fish itself is fine, and I'm good with the baking method. It's how we bake salmon as well. The dill sauce, however, is what makes this recipe a 5 star. The taste is wonderful and goes so well with the tilapia and the cajun seasoning. I think I will experiment with the fish--maybe try old bay or lemon pepper next time, but the dill sauce doesn't need a thing added or subtracted. I don't have lemons so I used lemon juice and poured on the fish, then rubbed in olive oil, then rubbed in the cajun seasoning. It worked perfectly. And if you get a bit too much seasoning on one filet, which I did, the dill sauce cools it down. Perfect. Thanks for the recipe!

This is an excellent recipe, but I added my own spin. I didnt have any sour cream,so i found a substitute on the internet,which was 6oz (12tbsp)of cream cheese and 3tbsp of milk that i mixed in the blender. That amounted to 3/4 cup, so I reduced the mayo to 1/8 cup (i dont like too much mayo in sauces/dips anyway). FABULOUS sauce it turned out to be. As far as the tilapia,its one of the blandest fish out there unless you really season it, so my version of seasoning was the Cajun seasoning,but I also lightly added garlic salt, cracked black pepper, Old Bay, oregano, and lemon pepper. I also took the advice from a previous poster to add butter to the top of the fish for moisture retention, so I had some garlic butter on hand and smeared a little bit all over the top of each fish. It came out perfect, and my boyfriend said it was the BEST TILAPIA HE'S EVER HAD (he previously didnt like this fish) !!! Thank you so much for this starter recipe!

I thought the fish was good, and I thought the sauce was good... but it was not good together. The dill flavor really doesn't complement the Cajun seasoning's spices - it's like they are both completely separate and competing against each other. The sauce basically tasted like a variation of a Greek (Tzatziki) sauce. I did enjoy the flavor of the fish, so I'll probably make it again, but I won't make the sauce with it.

We had never tried Tilapia before we tried this recipe, both my husband and I loved it and I have made it 3 times in the past month. I don't change a thing except when I fry it I use a little butter. It is so easy and delicious.

Great versatile sauce... I baked at temp recommended, but ended up having to bake for a total of 25-30 minutes. All ended up great - my 5 year old couldn't get enough!

Wish I could rate 3.5. I liked the sauce, but instead of complimenting the heat/spiciness of the cajun fish, I felt like it competed with it. Almost like the creator couldn't decide whether to go fresh lemon/dill or cajun with the fish preparation. However, the sauce went beautifully with the asparagus I served on the side. Used light mayo & sour cream and was still very nice.

I thought this recipe was fantastic. I took the advice of others and pan seared the fish. It was fantastic with the dill sauce. I will make it over and over again.

I made this last night and it was great. I pan seared it in my cast iron skillet first, then finished baking it in the oven. Served with the sauce and it was wonderful. My husband even liked it and he isn't a big "baked" fish person

My husband loves dill and requests this recipe often. The sauce in this recipe actually gets used in other dishes, it's that good. I have had to substitute lemon with lime and we have actually even used dried dill and it tastes almost just as good as fresh dill (just use a lot more).
