Tips:

  • Choose the freshest tilapia fillets possible. Fresh tilapia fillets should be firm and have a mild, slightly sweet smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
  • Pat the tilapia fillets dry before cooking. This will help the breading adhere to the fish and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Use a light touch when breading the tilapia fillets. Press the breading mixture onto the fish gently to avoid breaking the fillets.
  • Cook the tilapia fillets over medium heat. This will help the fish cook evenly without burning the breading.
  • Serve the tilapia fillets immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for tilapia include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, and rice.

Conclusion:

Tangy parmesan tilapia is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The tilapia fillets are coated in a flavorful breading made with parmesan cheese, garlic, and herbs, then baked until golden brown. The result is a moist and flaky fish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
