Parmesan Crusted Tilapia

I've been preparing Tilapia this way for a while and a friend recently reached out asking for a good fish recipe and this was the first to come to mind, so I decided to post it here and share it with all of you...Enjoy!

Ingredients 

• 1/2 lb Tilapia
• 1 1/2 cups Bread Crumbs
• 2 cups Grated Parmesan
• 1/2 cup Shredded Parmesan
• 2 Eggs
• 1 Tbsp. Parsley
• 2 Tbsp. Granulated/Powder Garlic
• 1 tsp. Oregano
• 2 tsp. Sea Salt
• 1/4 cup Olive Oil

Preparation

1. In an elongated shallow bowl, add eggs, 1 Tbsp garlic, & 1 tsp. sea salt and beat thoroughly, set aside.
2. In an elongated shallow bowl, add remaining ingredients except for olive oil and mix together, set aside.
3. Add olive oil to a medium size frying pan and heat over medium temperature.
4. One piece at a time, add fish to egg wash and coat both sides.  Then add to Parmesan mixture and coat both sides.
5. Place in frying pan and cook on both sides for 6 minutes, or until golden brown.  Remove and set aside.
6. Repeat steps 4 & 5 until all the fish has been cooked. Serve. 

Quick Tips: 

• You may have to add more olive oil as you start a new piece of fish, just enough to coat bottom of the pan.
• If you cook fish often, investing in a fish spatula would be a great idea.  It helps to keep the fish in one piece while flipping and transporting.
