This dish is a favorite served in restaurants across the nation. Tilapia is a mild fish that works for non-fish lovers as well. My friends and family beg me to make this dish.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese shopping list
- 1/4 cup butter, softened shopping list
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise shopping list
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon dried basil shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper shopping list
- 1/8 teaspoon onion powder shopping list
- 1/8 teaspoon celery salt shopping list
- 2 pounds tilapia fillets shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat your oven's broiler. Grease a broiling pan or line pan with aluminum foil.
- 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.
- 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.
- Tip: Cut center vein out of the tilapia to remove fishy flavor.

Excellent recipe. Next time we may add a little kick to it with some hot sauce. We had some sauce left over and used it on Mahi mahi - again it tasted fantastic!
