Fish

I tried a new recipe for fish.  I usually cook fish the way my Grandmother taught me, which is baked but turns out tasting more like fried- tried & true & always delicious.  However, I didn't care for cooking Talapia that way.  It's not one of my favorite fish anyhow- but it's cheap when we haven't been catching much!
This might be our new way to cook fish!  I'm not sure it would be good on an oily fish like Spanish Mackerel- probably keep to the old recipe for fish like that.

Parmesan Crusted Tilapia Fillets

3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (in a pinch, use grated) 

2 teaspoons paprika 

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley I omitted this because we didn't have any

salt and ground black pepper to taste (lots of pepper)

granulated garlic (I added this- and lots of it)

Tilapia Fillets (or any white flaky fish)

olive oil 

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Whisk dry ingredients.

Coat tilapia fillets with olive oil and press into the Parmesan cheese mixture. Arrange coated fillets on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake in preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.

Tip
*Aluminum foil can be used to keep food moist, cook it evenly, and make clean-up easier.

I served it with a southwest salad.
