Time 20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs tilapia fillets (8)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/8 cup softened margarine or 1/8 cup butter
3 tablespoons light mayonnaise
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon celery salt

Steps:

  • Preheat Broiler.
  • Place filets on foil lined broiler pan in a single layer.
  • Mix all existing ingredients together in bowl with whisk until well blended.
  • Broil filets a few inches from broiler for 2-3 minutes.
  • Flip filets and broil another 2-3 minutes.
  • Flip filets again and cover each with Parmesan mixture, and broil until the mixture starts to brown. Do not overcook fish!

Tips:

  • Choose fresh tilapia fillets for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have Panko breadcrumbs, you can use regular breadcrumbs or crushed crackers.
  • Use a shallow dish for breading the tilapia so that the breadcrumb mixture evenly coats the fish.
  • Press the breadcrumb mixture firmly onto the tilapia fillets so that it adheres well.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish when broiling the tilapia. Leave some space between the fillets so that they cook evenly.
  • Broil the tilapia for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.
  • Serve the tilapia immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Broiled Parmesan Tilapia is a delicious and healthy low-carb meal that is easy to make. It is a great choice for busy weeknights or when you are looking for a lighter meal.
