Every week I try to serve a new healthy fish. With its fresh dill and delicious panko bread crumb herb crust, this dish with mild tilapia is a winner. —Tamara Huron, New Market, Alabama

Ingredients

1 cup panko bread crumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons snipped fresh dill
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 tilapia fillets (6 ounces each)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Lemon wedges

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. Toss together first 5 ingredients.

Place tilapia in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray; brush with lemon juice. Top with crumb mixture, patting to help adhere.
Bake, uncovered, on an upper oven rack until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.

Test Kitchen tips

This breading would complement most types of fish. Try it on salmon if you prefer.

If you don't have fresh dill, a bit of fresh thyme would be great with fish and lemon.

Tossing the bread crumbs with a bit of oil helps it crisp up in the short amount of time it takes to cook the fish.
