Parmesan Crusted Tilapia Recipe

For a delightful and simple dinner, this Parmesan crusted tilapia is sure to impress. Start by preheating your oven to 200°C (400°F) and lining a baking tray with parchment paper.

Take two fillets of tilapia and pat them dry with kitchen paper. In a mixing bowl, combine a generous handful of grated Parmesan cheese with breadcrumbs, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. This creates a crispy, flavourful crust that beautifully complements the delicate fish.

Dip each tilapia fillet in melted butter before coating it in the Parmesan mixture. Place the coated fillets on the prepared baking tray and drizzle a touch more melted butter on top for extra flavour. Bake in the oven for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the crust is golden brown.

Serve your Parmesan crusted tilapia with a side of seasonal vegetables or a light salad for a refreshing meal. Enjoy the satisfying crunch and the rich, cheesy flavour that makes this dish a family favourite!
