This is my favorite tilapia recipe ever! I want to eat it every day. I make it a little healthier by using lite mayo and less butter.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese

  • ⅛ cup butter, softened

  • 3 tablespoons light mayonnaise

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

  • ¼ teaspoon dried basil

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • ⅛ teaspoon onion powder

  • ⅛ teaspoon celery salt

Directions

  1. Preheat oven broiler. Grease broiling pan or line with aluminum foil.

  2. Mix Parmesan cheese, butter, mayonnaise, and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Season with dried basil, pepper, onion powder, and celery salt. Mix well and set aside. Arrange fillets in a single layer on prepared pan.
