Smothered Tilapia Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°.
• Place fish fillets on a lightly greased shallow pan.
• Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper.
• Dot with butter.
• In a bowl, combine tomato, onion, basil, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. (This should resemble bruschetta topping in consistency and taste.)
• Spoon over fish.
• Bake fish for about 8-10 minutes, or until it flakes easily when tested with a fork.
• Turn off oven.
• Sprinkle fish with cheese and return to oven just to melt the cheese.

Steps:

• Combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl; stir well. Brush oil mixture evenly over tilapia fillets.
• Heat a large nonstick grill pan over medium-high heat; grease with cooking spray. Grill fish until it flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Brush the tilapia fillets with oil on both sides, season with Creole seasoning to taste, then place into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the flesh is no longer translucent, and the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook until the garlic has softened and the aroma has mellowed, about 2 minutes. Stir in the Alfredo sauce and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, and keep warm until the fish is ready. Pour the sauce over the fish to serve. Sprinkle with additional Creole seasoning if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In a small bowl, stir together the sun-dried tomatoes, olives and capers. Set aside.
• Place the tilapia fillets side by side in a baking dish. Drizzle with oil and lemon juice.
• Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the fish flakes with a fork. Check after 10 minutes, so as not to overcook, or the fish may be dry. When fish is done, top with the tomato mixture, and serve.
