I've made this many times. SO yummy (and easy). Whenever we have tilapia my husband always wants it this way!

Similar to other reviews used 1/4 tsp of red pepper and still had enough kick. My picky eaters ate this and I enjoy how quick and healthy this recipe is. Will make on a regular basis.

OMG!!!!! This recipe is simple and amazing. My husband and I both loved it. Used 1/2 tsp of red pepper and it was the perfect little kick. Thank You!!!

I made it using 1 tsp red pepper flakes. It was spicy but not too much for us. If you don't like spicy I'd cut it back. This was de-lish!! Defintely going in my "keeper pile".

Easy to make, quick and painless. Very tasty. Toned it down by using only a 1/8 Tsp red pepper. The kids even liked it and were asking for more.

Very tasty. I've made it twice and my husband and I both agree it's a little too spicy if you use 1tsp of the red pepper flakes, so we stick to 1/2 and it's very good!

I've had trouble finding a good fish recipe that I enjoy, but I absolutely love this one. I adjust the amount of crushed red pepper depending on who is eating it, and how much spice they can take.
