Almond and Parmesan Baked Tilapia

Ingredients:

• 3-4 Tilapia filets, thawed if frozen (This recipe will work best with pieces that are at least 1/2 inch thick.)
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 1/3 cup almond meal
• 2 T finely grated Parmesan or Asiago cheese
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp. pepper (or slightly more lemon pepper)
• 1/2 tsp. fish rub (optional, but recommended)
• Tartar sauce

Melt butter and margarine together over low heat. In a flat bowl big enough to hold the fish, mix almond meal, Parmesan, garlic powder, lemon pepper or pepper, and Fish Rub in a flat dish.

Dip each fish filet in butter, turning to coat both sides, then into almond mixture. Try to get as much of the almond mixture to stick to the fish as you can. (I pressed it down with a fork.)

Bake 20-30 minutes, or until fish is firm to the touch and coating is turning golden brown. The baking time will depend on the thickness of the fish, so watch it carefully.

Serve with tartar sauce.

Servings: 3-4
