Time 3h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 tilapia fillets
1 ½ cups orange juice
6 tablespoons butter, softened
¾ cup panko bread crumbs
3 tablespoons orange juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil
½ cup orange juice

Steps:

  • Pour 1 1/2 cups orange juice into a resealable plastic bag. Add tilapia fillets, coat with the juice, squeeze bag to remove excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator 3 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Whisk butter, panko bread crumbs, 3 tablespoons orange juice, garlic, and basil together in a bowl.
  • Remove tilapia from the orange juice and shake to remove excess liquid; arrange fillets in a 13x9-inch baking dish. Discard marinade.
  • Pour 1/2 cup orange juice over the tilapia fillets. Spread butter mixture over the top of the filets to cover each completely.
  • Bake in preheated oven until the liquid is bubbling and the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.
