• 4 (6 ounce) tilapia fillets, fresh or fully thawed
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Preparación

1. 1

   Adjust your oven rack to the middle position and preheat to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Pat the tilapia fillets completely dry with paper towels. Season both sides of each fillet lightly with kosher salt and black pepper. Arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.

3. 3

   In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, Panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley. Stir until it forms a thick paste.

4. 4

   Divide the Parmesan mixture evenly among the four tilapia fillets. Spread the mixture over the top of each fillet in a thick, even layer.

5. 5

   Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the crusted fillets.

6. 6

   Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork (internal temperature of 145°F or 62°C).

7. 7

   Let the fish rest for a minute before serving with fresh lemon wedges.
