Parmesan Encrusted Tilapia
Parmesan Encrusted Tilapia is one of our favorite recipes from the kitchens of Olive Garden Restaurant. This first version is a copycat we found through internet research which we have adjusted for the two of us.
Ingredients:
12 ounces tilapia fillets
1/2 cup Alfredo Sauce
3 ounces angel hair pasta
1 lemon, sliced into 6 wedges
1/4 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoons vegetable oil
Roasted Veggies
Procedures:
Thoroughly mix the breadcrumbs, parmesan and oil, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
Place Tilapia fillets in a non-stick, shallow, baking pan.
Pour 3 tablespoons of Alfredo sauce onto each tilapia fillet. Use bottom of spoon to evenly coat top of fish.
Sprinkle 1/3 cup of prepared tilapia crusting mixture onto each piece and firmly pat breading evenly over Alfredo sauce.
Place pan of tilapia on top rack and roast approximately 15 minutes, or when the internal temperature of fish reaches 150 degrees F.
Toss the vegetables with angel hair pasta (and extra Alfredo sauce if you like) and place around fish.
Garnish with lemon wedges and serve immediately.
