While starving, I threw this together and had a nice tilapia dish done in less than 20 minutes! :) I served this super fast meal with canned mexi-corn and black beans combined together with a sprinkling of garlic powder and a few dashes of cayenne pepper, and microwaved for two minutes! Ingredients:
12 -16 ounces tilapia fillets (thawed) |
1/2-1 lemon (juiced!) |
1 -2 tablespoon mayonnaise |
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese (kraft or store-brand in green canister is okay, freshly shredded or grated is even better!) |
black peppercorns, freshly ground (to taste!) |
4 tablespoons shredded asiago cheese |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Spray a 13x9 Pyrex dish with cooking spray.
3. Combine lemon juice, mayonnaise, parmesan cheese, and black pepper in a bowl. (I guesstimated the ingredient amounts in a Pyrex measuring cup, squeezing in the lemon juice first, then adding the remaining ingredients ~ EXCEPT the asiago cheese ~ add that last after the fish bakes!).
4. Place thawed tilapia fillets in baking dish ~ top with mayo/parmesan cheese mixture ~ spread to cover fillets.
5. Bake at 425F for 10-12 minutes, just until fish flakes.
6. Top baked fillets with grated asiago cheese ~ (about one tablespoon per fillet).
7. Bake 5 more minutes until asiago cheese is lightly browned.
8. For a super fast meal, I served this with canned mexi-corn and black beans combined together with a sprinkling of garlic powder and a few dashes of cayenne pepper, and microwaved for two minutes!
