Ingredients
- 4 tilapia fillets
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (divided)
- 3 Tbsp low fat mayo
- 3 Tbsp 0% Greek yogurt
- 1 lime (zested and juiced)
- 1/2 Tsp dried basil
- 1/2 Tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 Tsp salt
- 1/4 Tsp pepper
Note
Serve these tilapia fillets with some brown rice or quinoa and a vegetable of your choice for a complete meal. They would also be delicious over a salad or stuffed in a pita or wrap for lunch. The marinade mixture would also work great on salmon.
Directions
1. | Combine 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese and remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Rub tilapia fillets all over with mayo mixtures and place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and sprayed with cooking spray. Let marinade for about 20 minutes. |
2. | Preheat oven to 350. Scoop any marinade on the sheet onto top of fillets and bake tilapia fillets for about 8-10 minutes. |
3. | Remove from oven and switch to broil. Sprinkle remaining parmesan on tilapia and broil for about 5 minutes, or until browned. |
