I've decided to cook healthier for my family, and that includes having more fish at home. This is a great recipe, and it's fast, too! —Hope Stewart, Raleigh, North Carolina

I love Tilapia and capers

I have made this dish three times in the past two weeks! I have added spices and wine to suit my tastes. It's a simple recipe that can be enhanced many ways.

This was absolutely delicious! The only change I made was minced garlic instead of powder. Awesome taste!

Very good.the capers (the 1st time ive heard of them) really added a nice tartflavor to the fish.

This was really good, even with using bottled lemon juice (I ran out of lemons). Definitely will make this again.

Added bonus- since I usually only make 3 fillets at a time, this works perfectly in an 11" x 7" pan and baked in my toaster oven.

I was out of parmesan for my regular tilapia recipe.. so i tried this one. I had no capers, but used all the rest of the ingredients. Another good recipe from Taste of Home!

Very delicious! I didn't have the paprika but it turned out just fine without it. It was a little colorless which I assume was because I omitted the paprika. It did need more salt but it was still tasty as is. I will definitely make this again!
