Ingredients
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 4 tilapia fillets (6 ounces each)
Method
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place the egg in a shallow bowl and lightly beat it. In another shallow bowl, combine the cheese, Italian seasoning, pepper flakes and pepper. Dip the fillets into the egg and then into the cheese mixture.
- Place the fillets in a 15x10x1-inch baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake the fish until it just begins to flake easily with a fork, about 10 to 15 minutes. If you'd like, serve the Parmesan tilapia with chopped parsley and lemon wedges.
