Broiled Tilapia Parmesan

Talk about quick and easy! This recipe takes a total of 15 minutes to make, start to finish.

Ingredients

2 pounds tilapia fillets (I prefer to use frozen packaged tilapia. The fillets are thinner and work well in this recipe)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup softened butter
3 Tablespoons mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon celery salt
Optional:  Bread crumbs and dried parsley

Instructions

In a small bowl, combine Parmesan cheesem, butter, mayonnaise, lemon juice, basil, pepper onion powder and celery salt. Mix well and set aside.

Preheat the broiler. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil. Arrange fillets in a single layer on the prepared pan. Broil a few inches from the heat for 3 - 4 minutes. Flip the fillets over and broil for an additional 3 - 4 minutes. Remove the fillets from the oven and cover them with the Parmesan mixture. If desired sprinkle bread crumbs and dried parsley on top. Broil two more minutes or until the topping is browned and the fish flakes easily with a fork. Be careful not to overcook the fish.
