Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2 egg whites
2 lbs tilapia fillets, raw
1/4 cup dried breadcrumbs
1/4 cup cornmeal, uncooked
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Sift or stir flour, salt and pepper together in a shallow dish, and set aside. In a bowl, beat egg whites until white and frothy. In another bowl, combine bread crumbs with cornmeal and basil.
  • To bread fillets, dip first into flour, shaking off any excess, then into egg whites, then into bread crumb mixture.
  • Spray a shallow baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Lay fillets flat in the dish, tucking under any thinner ends or edges for more even cooking.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with fork.
