Since changing to a healthier style of cooking, I've come up with new coatings for baked fish. I use almonds, panko bread crumbs and a smidge of hot sauce to add crunchy texture with nice heat. -Amanda Flinner, Beaver, Pennsylvania

I've tried many tilapia recipes, but this one is by far the best. The almonds and lemon-herb sauce are the perfect combination. I will definitely be making this again.

This was a great recipe! I used cod instead of tilapia and it turned out just as well. The almonds added a nice crunch and the lemon-herb sauce was very flavorful.
