Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

Tilapia
1/2 cup arils from 1 large POM Wonderful pomegranate
4 6-oz. skinless tilapia fillets
1/2 cup panko or bread crumbs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 large egg
1 teaspoon vegetable oil to grease baking dish

Steps:

Tilapia: 1. Preheat oven to 375°F. 2. Score 1 fresh pomegranates and place in a bowl of water. Break open the pomegranates under water to free the arils (seed sacs).

Press 2 tablespoons of juice for use with potatoes and set aside. (Refrigerate or freeze remaining arils for another use.) 3. Heat add olive oil and panko in a small skillet. Cook over medium heat and stir until crumbs are lightly browned. 4. Mix browned panko together with parsley, lemon zest, salt and pepper. 5. Dip tilapia fillets in egg beaten with lemon juice and then roll into panko mixture. 6. Place fillets in a greased casserole dish and bake for 20 to 30 minutes. 7. Garnish with more chopped parsley and arils; serve with potatoes.
