Ingredients
 

  • 3 pieces Tilapia
  • 2 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoon plain breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dill weed
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • olive oil to coat fish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F
  • Combine grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dill weed, onion powder, black pepper, salt and pour in melted butter. Give a good mix. It will seem a bit dry but just press it together and it'll spread. If worried you can add another TB of butter.
  • On a baking sheet line fish and brush with olive oil.
  • Sprinkle parmesan on top of each fish and lightly press in. The crust should stick with ease. Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Check at 15 minutes because browning will happen fast.
  • Once done serve immediately because fish gets cold fast.
