Time 30m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (4 ounce) frozen tilapia fillets
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 pinches garlic pepper, divided, or to taste
2 pinches lemon-pepper seasoning, divided, or to taste
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 large lemon, juiced, divided
¼ cup salted butter, melted
½ cup fresh bread crumbs
¼ cup slivered almonds
1 teaspoon salted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly brush a small cast iron pan or a baking pan with olive oil.
  • Brush frozen fish with 2 teaspoons olive oil and season both sides with garlic pepper, lemon-pepper seasoning, salt, and pepper. Top with 1/2 of the lemon juice. Place fish in a broiler pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 3 minutes. Turn fillets over and continue to bake, watching closely, until fish begins to flake, 3 to 5 minutes. Use a spatula to transfer fish to the prepared cast iron pan. Leave the oven on.
  • Top fish with 1/4 cup melted butter and the remaining lemon juice and season with garlic pepper, lemon-pepper seasoning, salt, and pepper. Season bread crumbs as desired and mix with slivered almonds and 1 teaspoon butter. Sprinkle over fish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, watching closely and without turning, until golden brown on top, 5 to 7 minutes.

This tilapia recipe was a disaster! The fish was overcooked and the topping was burnt. I do not recommend this recipe.

Not bad, but not great. The tilapia was a bit dry and the topping was bland. I think I'll try a different tilapia recipe next time.

Easy and delicious! The almond and breadcrumb topping added a wonderful crunch to the tilapia. I served it with roasted vegetables and it was a hit with the whole family.

Not bad! I used panko breadcrumbs instead of regular ones and it turned out great. The tilapia was flaky and moist, and the topping was nicely browned and flavorful. Will definitely make this again!

This almond and breadcrumb crusted tilapia was a crispy, savory delight! The nutty flavor of the almonds paired perfectly with the tender fish, and the breadcrumb topping added a satisfying crunch. A definite keeper in my recipe book!
