PESTO CRUSTED TILAPIA

A couple of weeks ago at work, we had this AMAZING pesto crusted salmon left over from a meeting. I have wanted to recreate the recipe ever since, and decided to give it a try with tilapia. I'm sure you could use this topping on any fish and it would be fantastic -- I'm dying to try it with a nice big piece of salmon. It is such an easy recipe and I'm sure it would be even better with homemade pesto.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Cover a baking sheet with foil and coat with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Place fish fillets on baking sheet and sprinkle with black pepper. No salt is needed as pesto and parmesan cheese are both pretty salty.
  • In a small bowl, combine pesto, breadcrumbs, and parmesan cheese (hands or a fork will do).
  • Divide the topping evenly over the fish fillets, spreading with your fingers and pressing into the fish.
  • Bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees, then switch to broil to crisp up the crust for the last 2-5 minutes.
  • If the middle of the fillet flakes with a fork and is completely opaque, it's time to dig in!
  • Serve with steamed broccoli and brown rice pilaf for a healthy dinner.

24 ounces tilapia fillets (four 6 oz pieces of fish)
4 tablespoons pesto sauce (I used Classico Original Basil Pesto)
3 tablespoons Italian seasoned breadcrumbs (I used whole wheat by 4C)
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated
ground black pepper

OVEN ROASTED TILAPIA WITH TOMATOES, PESTO AND LEMON

Looking for something impressive but oh so easy? This simple and delicious dish would make a great 'date night' dinner or even doubled for a dinner party. Tilapia is a really mild fish without that 'fishy' taste making this a great recipe for people who do not like fish and a wonderful meal for those who do! Pesto and tomatoes are so lovely and aromatic together and roasting allows the flavors to intensify. What a simple way to create an incredibly delicious dish. In order to soak up every delicious drop I would serve this over a simple rice like my Recipe#137364 or serve it with a good crusty bread. Adding a simple green salad and a wonderful bottle of wine would make this meal totally rock! I would serve it with Chateau Ste Michele Dry Riesling. I found this recipe on http://ellysaysopa.com/2008/03/03/fish-for-people-who-dont-like-fish/ Of course I did change up a few things that I thought would make it even better. My mouth was watering so much when I read this recipe that I had to share it with you as fast as I could! If you try this before I get to the store and am able to make it please let me know what you think! After Breezermom's helpful comment I edited the directions for the pesto and lemon juice so the pesto is not runny. Thanks breezer!

Oven Roasted Tilapia With Tomatoes, Pesto and Lemon image

Steps:

  • Gently combine the tomatoes, garlic and olive oil with a little salt and pepper if desired and roast in a preheated 425 degree oven for about 10 minutes.
  • Juice the lemon and mix SOME of the juice with the pesto, adding more if desired or needed keeping the pesto a nice spreadable consistency and not runny. (Thanks breezer mom!) Spread mixture on top of the fish which has been seasoned with a little more salt and pepper if desired.
  • Cut the juiced lemon halves in half again so that you have two pieces of lemon to support each filet. Place a filet on top of two pieces of juiced lemon so that the fish is somewhat out of any liquid that accumulates, allowing it to roast rather than boil.
  • Return to oven for about 10 minutes or until the fish is flaky and no longer opaque.
  • Plate the fish along with the tomatoes and garlic and serve with more lemon wedges if desired.
