I found this recipe on the allrecipes website. Sometimes I cringe at the recipes on that site but this one looked really yummy so I figured I would give it a try. I basically stuck to the recipe but I used two eggs instead of one and a bit of extra seasoning. The one egg just didn't seem to be enough for all of the tilapia. I am glad I gave this recipe a chance. It turned out absolutely fantastic! I will make this again for sure!
Ingredients:
1 eggs 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper 1/2 teaspoon garlic pepper 1/2 cup ground almonds 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 4 (6 ounce) tilapia fillets | 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour for dusting 3 tablespoons butter salt to taste 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 4 sprigs parsley 4 lemon wedges |
Directions:
| 1. | Beat the eggs with the lemon pepper and garlic pepper until blended; set aside. Stir together ground almonds with 1 cup of Parmesan cheese in a shallow dish until combined; set aside. Dust the tilapia fillets with flour, and shake off excess. Dip the tilapia in egg, then press into the almond mixture. |
| 2. | Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook tilapia in melted butter until golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium, and season fillets with salt if desired. Sprinkle the tilapia with the remaining Parmesan cheese, cover, and continue cooking until the Parmesan cheese has melted, about 5 minutes. |
| 3. | Transfer the tilapia to a serving dish, and garnish with parsley springs and lemon wedges to serve. |

I understand about allrecipe.com I once made some cheesy potatoes and they tasted really bad. I wish Charlie could eat table food or I'd have given it to him. I threw the whole thing away. This looks really good!
I just love your weblog! Very nice post! Still you can do many things to improve it.
