Optional garnish: lemon wedges and fresh herbssuch as parsley, basil, or thyme
Instructions
Preheat oven to BROIL.
Spray a large, rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Set aside.
Combine almonds and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl and set aside.
Combine melted butter and garlic powder in a small bowl. Brush the butter mixture on both sides of the fish.
Place the fish on the prepared baking sheet, bottom side UP, and broil for 4 minutes.
Flip the fish over, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and almonds, and return to the broiler for about 3-5 more minutes, or until topping is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Garnish with lemon wedges and herbs.
*I use my Cuisinart Mini Prep Food Processor to chop the raw almonds in about 30 seconds!
Notes
Cooking Just for Two?This is a great recipe to scale down for a smaller family. Just bake 2 tilapia fillets and cut the rest of the ingredients in half. The cooking time will remain the same.
