Baked Lemon Butter Tilapia

Tilapia is a light and flaky fish that takes on the flavors it’s cooked in. This recipe is super easy and results in a definite crowd-pleaser. But you can substitute any white fish (trout, snapper, mahimahi, opakapaka, etc.)

Ingredients

• TILAPIA FILETS, 4, about 4 oz. each (thawed, if frozen)
• CANOLA-SOFTENED BUTTER, 2 tablespoons
• OLD BAY SEASONING, 1 teaspoon
• PARSLEY, 1 teaspoon
• SEASONED PEPPER, 1 teaspoon
• FRESH LEMON, 1

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Pat-dry fish with paper towel and place on foil-lined baking sheet.
3. Mix together the butter and seasonings, and spread carefully over the fish.
4. Squeeze half the lemon onto the fish (about 1 tablespoon of juice).
5. Slice remaining lemon and place on top of each fillet.
6. Bake for 10-15 minutes, depending on thickness until fish reaches 145°F and flakes easily with a fork.
