In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper.
Place the tilapia fillets and shrimp in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the tilapia and shrimp, then gently toss again to ensure all pieces are well seasoned.
