Nut-crusted tilapia
Nut-crusted tilapia is a delicious dish where tilapia fillets are coated with a mixture of finely chopped nuts (such as almonds, pecans, or walnuts) and breadcrumbs, along with herbs and spices. The fillets are then pan-fried or baked until the crust is crispy and the fish is tender and flaky. It’s a tasty and nutritious way to enjoy tilapia with a crunchy and flavorful twist!

- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet.
- In a shallow dish, combine the chopped nuts, breadcrumbs, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Brush the tilapia fillets with melted butter on both sides.
- Press each fillet into the nut and breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides evenly.
- Place the coated fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the tilapia in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy.
- Serve the nut-crusted tilapia hot with lemon wedges on the side.
