Ingredients:
1/2 cup(s) parmesan cheese |
1/4 cup(s) butter softened |
3 tablespoon(s) mayonnaise |
2 tablespoon(s) fresh lemon juice |
1/4 teaspoon(s) dried basil |
1/4 teaspoon(s) ground black pepper |
1/8 teaspoon(s) onion powder |
1/8 teaspoon(s) celery salt |
2 pound(s) tilapia fillets |
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven's broiler. Grease a broiling pan or line pan with aluminum foil. 2. In a small bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, butter, mayonnaise and lemon juice. Season with dried basil, pepper, onion powder and celery salt. Mix well and set aside. 3. Arrange fillets in a single layer on the prepared pan. Broil a few inches from the heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fillets over and broil for a couple more minutes. Remove the fillets from the oven and cover them with the Parmesan cheese mixture on the top side. Broil for 2 more minutes or until the topping is browned and fish flakes easily with a fork. Be careful not to over cook the fish. 4. ************ 5. From reviewer: 6. We love this recipe and I keep finding new ways to modify it (I feel I have to, since I make it at LEAST once a week)This is how we like it: I use celery seed rather than celery salt and usually have parmesan-romano cheese blend on hand so I use that. I also add 1/2 tsp. paprika, 1/4 tsp. garlic powder and 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes. I don't add any lemon juice anymore (I used to just reduce it by half) but now use low-fat mayo that I find to be quite tangy. I also double the amount of pepper and add about 1/2 c. of bread crumbs to the cheese mixture, which creates a nice texture and keeps the topping in place. Seasoning the fish with a bit of Old Bay seasoning, as others have done, really adds to the flavor as well. Thank you for helping us eat fish on a regular basis, Phoebe! |
