It seems like every Sunday night Marc and I have fish for dinner… it is totally coincidental but we both always crave it on Sundays.
I decided to share this recipe because we both loved it.. it was very refreshing and super quick to make!
Parmesan Crusted Tilapia with fresh parsley!!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb Tilapia
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 3 tbsp parmesan cheese
- 2 egg whites
- salt & pepper
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- canola oil
- 1/2 lemon
- 3 tbsp fresh chopped parsley
Directions:
Chop parsley and place it to the side. Squeeze lemon juice into a small dish. Drizzle canola oil in a large frying pan and turn heat to high. Combine breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, oregano, salt, & pepper in a bowl and mix. Take each piece of Tilapia and dip it in the egg white and then dip it into the breadcrumb mixture. Add to the frying pan.Cook the fish 3 1/2-4 minutes on each side (if your fish is thicker cook it a few minutes longer). Once cooked remove the fish and place on a serving dish. Turn heat to low, and de-glaze the pan with the lemon juice and drop in the fresh parsley..
cook for about 30 seconds until parsley wilts, pour on top of fish, and enjoy!
