Cooking Thawed Fillets. You can bake, grill, or fry thawed tilapia in a hot pan (the hotter the pan, the crispier the fish). Thawed fillets can be marinated or seasoned with a dry rub prior to cooking. Put the fillets in a sealable plastic bag along with the marinade or rub and let sit in the fridge for 20 minutes to an hour. A marinade penetrates the flesh faster than a dry rub.
