Fast, Easy and Healthy! This recipe is for 2, but I have easily doubled it for more. This bakes so quickly that I often make a bunch of these fillets and eat them leftover for lunches.

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 -4 tilapia fillets, depending on size
1/4 cup breadcrumbs or 1/4 cup crushed Ritz cracker
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt
pepper
garlic powder
olive oil

Steps:

  • Thaw and wash tilapia fillets if frozen. Pat dry on paper towels.
  • Combine crumbs, parmesan, italian seasoning and garlic powder on a plate, mixing well.
  • On a different plate, pour 1 tbsp lemon juice.
  • Working 1 at a time, place a fillet on the plate in the lemon juice, sprinkle with desired amount of kosher salt (be careful about how much salt is in your parmesan, crumbs, and other seasonings), black pepper, and garlic powder. Turn the fillet over in the lemon juice and sprinkle seasoning on the other side.
  • Dredge fillet in the parmesan mixture patting it all over to coat.
  • Place in an oiled baking dish, repeat with remaining fillets.
  • Sprinkle a little lemon juice over fillets and drizzle or spray them lightly with olive oil.
  • Bake at 425ºF for about 20 minutes or until they easily flake with a fork and edges are browning (you can sprinkle some more parmesan on top if desired). You can also bake these faster at 450ºF.

PARMESAN CRUSTED TILAPIA

This is a very simple recipe that I have altered from a recipe I found some years ago. It's quick and easy, fresh and most of all, my picky husband and son love it! I serve it with Brown and Wild Rice and a vegetable (my fav is steamed broccoli). Note that I use Bookbinder's Breadcrumbs in this recipe, as they add a nice lemony flavor that really makes the dish. I've used plain breadcrumbs and it's just not as good. I've also found that using an enamel cast iron baking dish produces a superior result.
