Parmesan-Crusted Talipia

[njean]

You may also use halibut, cod, haddock, salmon or other firm-texture fish fillets. I happen to prefer Talipia.

2 TBSP reduced-fat mayonnaise
2 Talipia steaks, thawed
1/8 tsp pepper
Peel of one lemon (finely grated)
2 TBSP bread crumbs ( I use Organic-Lightly salted)
2 TSPB grated Parmesan cheese
Lemon wedges

Heat oven to 450. Line 15x10x1-inch pan with foil; spray with cooking spray. Place fish fillets inside pan.

In small bowl, stir mayonnaise, lemon peel & pepper until well blended. Spread over the tops of each fillet. In small bowl, mix bread crumbs & Parmesan cheese. Spoon evenly over the mayonnaise mixture on top of fillets; pat in bread crumbs lightly on top.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Smother with lemon juice & serve immediately.

Enjoy with a nice crisp side salad, mash potatoes or white rice, & a veggie of your choice. (sometimes I'll cook up some minute rice & place the fillet over it.) Add a nice glass of wine if desired.

Enjoy!

That sounds good, I actually do something close to that with Chicken tenders or breast too. actually out of all the fish talipia seems like the least seems the least fishy to me

I've used this recipe before (with cod, red snapper and salmon) and it's delicous. I like to bake fish down here as every time I broil my smoke alarm goes off if I don't throw the breaker first.

I agree with you Lyn! Talipia does not taste fishy at all to me!

And Phyllis, someday I'll try it with snapper or cod & see how it tastes too!

Tilapia is quickly becoming my favorite fish. It works with anything.

I think I'll try it on chicken.

Norm:
I generally don't pick Talipia because I like just love flounder or sole. Haddock is my very favorite, but we have not been able to get it here...fresh or frozen.

I do like recipes for sauces or toppings. Many are interchangeable. This one will go in my recipe book for certain.

Many thanks,
Blanche

Yummy - I really enjoyed it. DH said it was tolerable - if it had been a chicken breast cooked like that he would have really liked it. But it was fish (and wasn't fishy tasting - I can't tolerate that!). I think he just doesn't like the texture of fish. He want something he can sink his teeth into.

But I told him we would be having it again.

Norma,
Thanks for the recipe sounds good. Do you think it would make good fish tacos?
I have a recipe for the sauce on fish tacos and yours sounded good for the fish part. Let me know if you have made them already with your recipe.

 

[Eva]

Sound good, Norma.

Thanks and I shall definitely try it...my sister and hubby love Tilapia and I am starting to like it too. I shall also try it on Salmon.

Bon appetit!

Sounds like my husband Karylnn. I can't even get him to try it...... "Me want steak!"

I haven't gotten brave enough to try fish tacos yet Crystal.....can't say I never will but I just haven't gotten that far yet! If you try it, let me know!

We have this little Tavern that Lyn and I like to go to from time to time. They make the best beer battered Cod of anywhere we've ever been. The trouble is, they are becoming too expensive to dine at anymore. We can go to Red Lobster and get more food for less money. Anyhow here is link for the curious and menu checkers.

Tilapia
Orange Rough
Grouper
Catfish
Haddock

Ross, you should try this tilapia recipe. I think it could be eaten without the benefit of dentures.

 

[Eva]

Norma,

I tried your recipe today and everyone loved it. verytime I try a new recipe, I take census; so, everyone one wants it again.

Glad you liked it Eva! I fix it once a week, sometimes twice!

 

[njean]

Had the parmesan crusted tilapia 2 weeks ago at Red Lobster, it tasted fine but the texture was too soft for me. I prefer something a bit firmer such as blackened Mahi Mahi.

Funny you should say this Dyna because I've eaten the one they fix at Red Lobster & I like mine better, therefore, I won't eat it anywhere else except the one I make at home !!

 

[Freddie]

I'm gonna give this a try tomorrow night Norma, but I'm going to use "Basa"? filets. Its a very firm type of fish and it doesn't smell fishy when cooked.

Good deal on them this week; buy one get one free - 6 filets for $5.99.....around here that's a good deal.

 

[Ross]

I'm going to try to serve this up tonight. Hard to get the ball and chain to eat fish.
