Crispy Almond Tilapia Recipes

CRISPY BREADED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Combine panko, parsley, and salt on a dinner plate. Mix egg and milk together in a bowl.
• Dip fillets into the milk mixture and shake off excess. Lightly dredge in panko mixture.
• Heat oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add fillets and cook until golden brown on 1 side, about 4 minutes. Turn and cook until fillets are no longer translucent in the center and they easily flake with a fork, about 5 minutes more. Serve immediately.

5-INGREDIENT ALMOND-CRUSTED BAKED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to BROIL.
• Spray a large, rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Set aside.
• Combine almonds and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl and set aside.
• Combine melted butter and garlic powder in a small bowl. Brush the butter mixture on both sides of the fish.
• Place the fish on the prepared baking sheet, bottom side UP, and broil for 4 minutes.
• Flip the fish over, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and almonds, and return to the broiler for about 3-5 more minutes, or until topping is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
• Garnish with lemon wedges and herbs.
• *I use my Cuisinart Mini Prep Food Processor to chop the raw almonds in about 30 seconds!

ALMOND CRUSTED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Place the almonds and breadcrumbs in a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground into a crumb-like mixture. Place the crumb mixture on a plate or in a shallow bowl.
• Heat oil and butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
• Spread each tilapia filet with 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard on both sides. Press the tilapia into the crumbs to get it coated on both sides. I usually do this several times to make sure the whole thing gets covered.
• Place the fish into the frying pan and cook for several minutes on each side, until the outside is browned and the fish is fully cooked. I usually just check the middle of the fish for doneness - pieces will flake off easily when it's done.
• Serve with parmesan, sea salt, or lemon.

ALMOND-CRUSTED TILAPIA

Steps:

• 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.
• 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.
• Transfer the tilapia to a serving dish, and garnish with parsley springs and lemon wedges to serve.
