Red Pepper & Parmesan Tilapia

We are always looking for light fish recipes because of the health benefits. Tilapia are mainly freshwater fish from shallow streams, ponds, rivers and lakes.  It helps that this white fish is inexpensive and doesn't have a strong fishy taste or smell.   We have prepared tilapia in many ways. This looks to be an easy weeknight meal and definitely done under 30 minutes.  Who knows it might even become a staple our our house?




1/2 cup egg substitute
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 to 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp pepper
4 tilapia fillets (6 ounces each)

  • Place egg substitute in shallow bowl.  In another shallow bowl, combine the cheese, Italian seasoning, pepper flakes and pepper.  Dip fillets in egg substitute, then cheese mixture.
  • Place in a 15 in. x 10 in. X 1 in. baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 425 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.





Tupps Tidbits:   A pie plate works well for the cheese mixture.  Make sure to spray the baking pan with cooking spray

Where did we find this one?  Taste of Home

Well this was fantastic, easy recipe.  Low calorie and would not change it. We usually bread and then bake our tilapia, but this was pretty easy and tastier than what we were used to.  It was full of flavor and came our baked just right.  KEEPER in our HOUSE!
