Panko Crusted Tilapia

"Panko is a Japanese bread crumb, coarser than regular breadcrumbs. It makes a delicious crunchy coating for baked tilapia that is lightly seasoned with butter and lemon."

Ingredients
  • 6 tilapia fillets, rinsed & patted dry
  • 1⁄2 cup melted margarine
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 cup unseasoned panko breadcrumbs
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
  • lemon wedge
Directions
  1. Heat oven to 375%. Spray a baking pan lightly with cooking oil.
  2. In a shallow dish, combine melted margarine, garlic powder, and lemon juice. In a separate shallow dish, combine panko and Old Bay seasoning.
  3. Dip each filet in butter mixture, then roll well in the panko mixture. Place filets in a single layer onto prepared pan.
  4. Press any remaining panko mixture onto tops of filets.
  5. Bake 12-14 minutes, until flaky. Serve with lemon wedges.
