Baked Tilapia

Let me start by saying that I am NOT a fish person. Basically the only seafood/fish I really eat is shrimp. But, in an effort to start eating healthier and get in shape, and because eating chicken day in and day out is getting old, I decided to try out this fish recipe that my sister sent me a long time ago. She promised that tilapia was a very mild, flaky fish and that this was really good. I thought I'd just get over it and give the recipe a try. Much to my surprise, I really, really liked it! It didn't taste too "fishy" and served over Rice-a-Roni Chicken Flavored rice was just a great combination. All of us enjoyed this meal (Macie and Maddie ate it, it wasn't their favorite, but they didn't complain). I'm looking forward to cooking with tilapia again. I know it's so good for us and it's a nice change from chicken all the time. Plus, it cooks SO fast! Like in 10 minutes fast. That I can handle!

Baked Tilapia

3/4 Cup Italian Bread Crumbs
1/3 Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp. Garlic Salt
1 tsp. Dried Oregano
4 Tilapia Filets (thawed or fresh - about 4 oz. each)

Preheat oven to 425.
On a plate, blend first 4 ingredients. Dredge tilapia filets in mixture and place on greased cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes or until fish flakes apart easily with a fork.
