Pistachio and Oat Crusted Tilapia
Upgrade your weeknight dinner routine with this pistachio and oat crusted tilapia recipe. Quick, easy, and oh so tasty!
Ingredients
- ½ cup shelled pistachios 30g
- 2 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese 10g
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ¼ cup old-fashioned oats 20g
- 6 tilapia fillets about 4 oz each
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Make the "breading" by pulsing the pistachios, cheese, spices and oats in a blender or food processor.½ cup shelled pistachios, 2 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon dried parsley, ¼ cup old-fashioned oats, 6 tilapia fillets
- You may want to add a pinch of salt. I thought the salt from the pistachios would be enough but they were a little under seasoned.
- Line a large sheet pan with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Coat the fish in the breading and place on the sheet pan.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until the fish is white and flaky.
Notes
- I don't dredge the fish in egg because I find it to be moist enough to hold the breading without it. I'd rather save the egg if I can and this way makes less of a mess.
