A new Tilapia Fav

We've loved Tilapia for a while, and usually just season with allspice and lemon juice. Well, i guess the allspice was old, so i threw it away. Last minute we found this easy recipe and happen to have all the ingredients, so we tried it. It's good...but I would suggest not cooking the max time...ours was just a little overdone.

Broiled Tilapia Parmesan (for 2)

Original recipe: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Broiled-Tilapia-Parmesan/Detail.aspx

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon butter, softened
  • 2-1/4 teaspoons mayonnaise
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon celery salt
  • 1/2 pound tilapia fillets

Directions

This recipe's Ingredients were scaled to yield a new amount. The directions below still refer to the original recipe yield of 8 servings.
  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.
