Lemon Parmesan Tilapia
2 pounds Tilapia fillets
2 teaspoons butter or margarine (2 to 4 teaspoons), softened
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
Lemon Parmesan Sauce
3/4 cup light mayonnaise
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Garnish
2 lemons, sliced
Fresh Italian parsley, chopped
Rinse the tilapia fillets in cold water and drain thoroughly. Top with butter or margarine and lemon juice. Broil about 4 inches from the source of heat for approximately 5 to 6 minutes or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily when tested with a fork.
Top each portion with 1-2 tablespoons of Lemon Parmesan Sauce; broil 2-3 minutes or until sauce puffs and turns golden brown. Place fillets on serving plate; garnish with lemon slices and fresh parsley.
Serves 6.
