So much flavor…so few ingredients! A quick and easy crumb coating makes this yummy tilapia recipe ideal for busy weeknights. Try the breading on cod for a change of pace. —Brandi Castillo, Santa Maria, California

My bread crumbs didn't get as brown as the picture. Next time I will spritz with Olive Oil and hopefully then it will get browner.

It's delicious after I cooked it until it was cooked through. I used Costco tilapia filets which I am sure aren't more than 5oz per, and the fish was def not done in 12 minutes...the fish is delicious, don't get me wrong, just check it first (unlike myself)

I used gluten-free bread crumbs instead of regular bread crumbs and it was delicious. Whenever I say I'm making fish for supper I usually get a big sigh, but this recipe was a huge hit and will definitely be making it again. Used 4 filets and had quite a bit mix left over so will be using more filets next time so not so much of the mix goes to waste!

This was OK. I should have read the reviews before I made it....definately need to brush with something to get the breading to stick. Also...my Parmesan cheese burned...not sure how to fix that. But taste was OK...needed more salt.

Has anyone used crushed corn flakes instead of bread crumbs?

This recipe turned out great. It was quick to make and didn't require many ingredients. My 2 1/2 year old even liked it.

This was pretty good! I used dry instead of soft bread crumbs, and I breaded some tilapia and some cod both. I love fish but don't care for tilapia, and this recipe allowed me to tolerate the rest of the tilapia I had in the freezer! I baked spritz the fish with extra light virgin olive oil before dipping it in the bread crumb mixture. That worked fine. I also baked it for 20 minutes and got it nice and golden brown. I liked the crispy breading a lot. It had the texture of what you would put on catfish. I'm sure it would have been great with some tartar sauce, but I skipped it to keep the calories low. My 4 year old doesn't eat fish that isn't breaded, and he didn't complain about eating this fish at all. The cod was even better in this breading than the tilapia, though. Delicious!
