This recipe came from the back of a bag of frozen tilapia. It is a good recipe for WW users.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2 egg whites
2 lbs tilapia fillets, raw
1/4 cup dried breadcrumbs
1/4 cup cornmeal, uncooked
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
cooking spray
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
2. Sift or stir flour, salt and pepper together in a shallow dish, and set aside. In a bowl, beat egg whites until white and frothy. In another bowl, combine bread crumbs with cornmeal and basil.
3. To bread fillets, dip first into flour, shaking off any excess, then into egg whites, then into bread crumb mixture.
4. Spray a shallow baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Lay fillets flat in the dish, tucking under any thinner ends or edges for more even cooking.
5. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with fork.
