Ingredients:

Serving

4 tilapia fillets, whole
1 cup fresh parmesan cheese, fresh and grated (sometimes i used an italian 5-cheese blend instead, which includes parmesan)
1 1/2 tsp paprika
2 tsp fresh parsley
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

Preheat the grill or oven to 350°F and spray the baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
Divide the filets into two parts, then rinse with water and pat dry.
Combine the parmesan cheese, garlic, paprika, parsley, salt, pepper on a large plate.
On another plate, pour the olive oil.
Dip the filets in the olive oil, then in the parmesan mixture.
Optional: let the flavors combine for about 4 hours. If you're taking it to a picnic, just put inside a ziplock bag.
Place on a baking sheet. For the barbecue, I use non-stick aluminum foil (Reynolds brand works great).
Bake/grill for about 20 minutes or until opaque in the middle and crispy on the edges. Do not overcook. The fish should be very moist with a crisp bottom and edges. Enjoy!
