Why We Like It
Fish, not chicken? Yes! This is chicken parmesan…seafood style! The seasoning, sauce and cheese add great flavor to the fish — a hit with the whole family!
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees
Make the Topping:
- 1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs (gluten free if desired)
- 2 Tbsp parmesan cheese (shredded)
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
Add to a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.
Prepare the Fish:
- 1.5 lbs tilapia fillets (or cod or flounder, in 4 fillets)
- 1 Tbsp dijon mustard
Place fish on a greased baking sheet. Brush each fillet with mustard, and then sprinkle each with the breadcrumb topping, dividing mustard and topping evenly between all 4 fillets.
Bake the fish for 10-15 minutes or until topping is golden brown and fish is cooked through.
Add and Bake Again:
- 1 1/2 cups marinara sauce (or your choice)
- 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded, part-skim, or shredded parmesan cheese)
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese (shredded)
Top each fillet with sauce, and then cheese, dividing each evenly between fillets.
Bake for 5 minutes more until heated through and cheese is melted.
Serve and Enjoy!
