ALMOND CRUSTED TILAPIA



Almond Crusted Tilapia image

This almond crusted tilapia has just 5 ingredients and is light, healthy, and super easy. Crushed almonds give perfect texture and flavor to the tilapia.

Provided by Pinch of Yum

Categories     Dinner

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup salted almonds
1/4 cup breadcrumbs, plain or seasoned
2-4 tilapia filets (I always have enough crumbs if I'm using 4 smaller filets)
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1-2 tablespoons oil
1 tablespoon butter
parmesan cheese, fresh lemon, or sea salt for topping

Steps:

  • Place the almonds and breadcrumbs in a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground into a crumb-like mixture. Place the crumb mixture on a plate or in a shallow bowl.
  • Heat oil and butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
  • Spread each tilapia filet with 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard on both sides. Press the tilapia into the crumbs to get it coated on both sides. I usually do this several times to make sure the whole thing gets covered.
  • Place the fish into the frying pan and cook for several minutes on each side, until the outside is browned and the fish is fully cooked. I usually just check the middle of the fish for doneness - pieces will flake off easily when it's done.
  • Serve with parmesan, sea salt, or lemon.
