    Made pumpkin seed encrusted tilapia last night - everyone loved it. Recipe link below. I left out oil and used fresh parsley. Super yummy.

  • I make my Tilapia by lightly brushing a small amount of olive oil on both sides, season with garlic powder and fresh finely chopped rosemary and lemon juice, bake in 350 degree oven, until done (I turn it once) it takes about 20 minutes. You can add additional lemon juice if you want before eating. :-)

    I am not a fish fan by all means, but I try to make it once a week. I haven't tried anything but talipa. Here is a recipe that I actually liked. This is broiling the fish. My husband likes his "harder" but loved the flavor. So if you like your fish "harder", than you can bake it with this coating. Serving size: 4 (4oz each), 165 calories per serving.

    Broiled Tilapia Parmesan (Adapted from Allrecipes.com)

    •4 Tilapia fillets (usually about a pound)

    •1/4 cup Parmesan cheese

    •4 tbsp. of I can't believe it's not butter

    •2 tbsp. of low-fat mayo

    •generous squeeze of lemon juice

    •1/4 teaspoon dried basil

    •1/4 teaspoon pepper

    •1/8 teaspoon onion powder

    •1/8 teaspoon salt

    •1/4 cup of Panko or regular bread crumbs

    1.In a bowl, put the butter out to soften. Mushy, not melted.

    2.Mix the cheese, mayo, & lemon juice in the butter. Sprinkle with the season, mix it up some more. If it’s too runny, add some more parmesan cheese. Too thick, add some more mayo…you want it thick, but still able to spread. Set aside.

    3.Put your top rack of the stove up, and set the broiler to low (if you have that option, we do, and high will burn the fish too quick!)

    4.Broil the tilapia for 2-3 minutes.

    5.Flip over the fish, broil for another 2 minutes.

    6.Take the pans out of the oven, and generously smear the butter-cheese mixture over the tilapia. Sprinkle with Panko or regular bread crumbs. This helps “set” the mix as well as give it a blackened finish.

    7.Broil for another 2-3 minutes.

    Bake most of way, remove, top with honey, mustard and salsa. Cook for 2-3 more minutes. Yummy! Also great on salmon.
