Healthier Broiled Tilapia with Parmesan

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Healthier Broiled Tilapia with Parmesan.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven's broiler, and while it warms up, get your broiling pan ready.

2. Step 2

   You can either grease it lightly or line it with aluminum foil for easy cleanup later.

3. Step 3

   In a small bowl, mix together some grated Parmesan cheese, softened butter, light mayonnaise, and a splash of fresh lemon juice.

4. Step 4

   To elevate the flavor, sprinkle in dried basil, ground black pepper, onion powder, and celery salt.

5. Step 5

   Stir everything together until it’s well blended, and then set this delicious mixture aside.

6. Step 6

   Next, lay your tilapia fillets in a single layer on the prepared broiling pan, making sure they have a little space between them for even cooking.

7. Step 7

   Slide the pan under the broiler and let the fillets cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, keeping them a few inches away from the heat.

8. Step 8

   After that, gently flip the fillets over and broil them for another 2 to 3 minutes until they’re just about done.

9. Step 9

   When the fish is perfectly cooked, take it out of the oven and generously spread the Parmesan mixture over the top of each fillet.
