Or semi raw I guess? My uncle made this dish tonight(forgot the name) where he did not actually cook the tilapia but squeezed lime juice on it and claimed the lime juice cooks the tilapia. Am I still getting the same nutrients or is anything affected/altered? especially the protein content since im lacking on protein a bit today.

tilapia and lime
being an Alaskan and having alot of experience with white fish, it is true that lime will thoroughly cook fish. A common recipe is ceviche, and it is absolutely delicious. We normally use halibut for the recipe, but it would work without a doubt on tilapia. The most important thing is the amount of time u allow the fish to marianate in the lime juice, 12-18 hours for the recipe we use. Good luck!

Most likely what you had was called a carpachio. The only time lime juice or something really acidic can "cook" a piece of meat or fish is if the protein in question is cut really thin. Otherwise, I would fully cook it. And you shouldn't be worried about the nutrients of a raw or cooked application. If you are that concerned about getting a few extra grams of protein in on any particular day, than you should take a step back and re evaluate.
