Garlic Butter Baked Tilapia Food

GARLIC BUTTER BAKED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease an 9x13 baking pan with cooking spray*. In a small bowl, whisk together butter, parsley, onion powder, paprika, garlic and lemon juice. Set aside.
• Season tilapia with salt and pepper, to taste and place onto the prepared baking dish.
• Pour the butter mixture over the tilapia fillets.
• Place into oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until tilapia flakes easily with a fork. Serve immediately with rice, cauliflower rice, mashed potato, mashed cauliflower or roasted veggies.

BAKED TILAPIA WITH HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a small bowl, mix the butter and tarragon until combined; set aside.
• Lay out 4 large pieces of foil. Layer the vegetables in the center of each piece of foil, starting with the mushrooms, then the celery and scallions. Dot the vegetables with some of the herb butter (use about half) and season each portion with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Lay the tilapia fillets over the vegetables; dot with the remaining herb butter. Sprinkle each fillet with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
• Bring the foil ends together, fold over and crimp closed on all sides to make sealed packets. Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake until the fish is cooked through but still moist, 18 to 22 minutes. Remove the packets from the oven and let sit 2 minutes before opening. Transfer the fish and vegetables to plates and drizzle with the cooking juices.

BAKED TILAPIA WITH GARLIC BUTTER RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Mince the garlic into fine pieces. Place the garlic in a saucepan, add butter and dillweed or parsley. Add one dash of salt, one dash of pepper and one dash of paprika powder to the saucepan. The exact amount will depend on your own preferences. Heat the saucepan over low heat until the butter is fully melted and begins to simmer. Remove the saucepan from the heat and brush some of its content over the bottom of a baking dish. Put the tilapia fillets on top of the garlic butter mix. Use the remaining garlic butter mix to brush the top of each tilapia fillet. Place the baking dish in the oven and let the tilapia bake for 12 to 15 minutes. The baked tilapia with garlic butter is ready when it is easy to flake it with a fork.

TILAPIA WITH GARLIC LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add tilapia fillets (thawed if frozen) to the pan.
• Sprinkle the fish with garlic powder (use more or less depending on your tastes).
• Pour lime juice over fish (use more or less depending on your tastes).
• Saute the tilapia until the fillets are opaque and easily flake with a fork (I usually turn once during cooking).
• Serve while hot. I like to serve this with a side of rice pilaf and california blend veggies.

BAKED TILAPIA IN GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Rub the fish fillets with the crushed garlic, then place them in a shallow, non-reactive dish. Spoon the olive oil over the fish until they are coated. Place the onion on top of the fish. Cover the fish and refrigerate overnight to allow the fish to soak in the marinade.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• If baking the fish, transfer it to a 9x13 inch baking dish along with the olive oil, garlic, and onion. Sprinkle the fish with the cayenne or white pepper. If you are grilling the fish, wrap the fish and oil, garlic, onion, and pepper in aluminum foil.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees F) for 30 minutes.

BAKED GARLIC LEMON TILAPIA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°.
• Melt butter on a low flame in a small sauce pan. Add garlic and saute on low for about 1 minute. Add the lemon juice and shut off flame.
• Spray the bottom of a baking dish lightly with cooking spray. Place the fish on top and season with salt and pepper. Pour the lemon butter mixture on the fish and top with fresh parsley. Bake at 400° until cooked, about 15 minutes.

BREADED GARLIC-HERB TILAPIA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a shallow baking dish with cooking spray. Pat fish fillets dry.
• Mix bread crumbs, seasoning, salt, and cayenne pepper together in a zip-top bag. Seal the bag and toss ingredients together in the sealed bag until thoroughly mixed.
• Mix milk and egg together in a bowl. Place fillets, 1 at a time, into egg mixture, shaking off excess. Place into the zip-top bag, seal, and shake to coat evenly. Transfer fillets to the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until easily flaked with a fork, about 15 minutes. Turn on the oven's broiler and continue to cook for until edges are crisp, about 5 minutes more.
