Directions:Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Spray a 9X13 baking dish with non-stick Cooking Spray. Place the 4 tilapia fillets in the dish and set aside.
To make the Parmesan Crust, mix the Panko bread crumbs and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese in a small bowl for the topping. Set aside.
To assemble the Parmesan Base, place 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, 1 TBSP parsley and the prepared Alfredo sauce in a medium bowl and stir well. Remove 1/2 cup of the mixture (reserving the rest to make the Parmesan Cream Sauce) and brush onto the 4 pieces of Tilapia, making a thick, even covering on the fish.
Evenly sprinkle the Parmesan Crust on top of the fish. Bake on the top shelf of the oven for 15-20 minutes or until fish reaches 140-150 degrees and the crust is golden brown.
Meanwhile while the fish is baking, make the Parmesan Cream Sauce. Place the remaining Parmesan Base in a medium sauce pan, add 2 TBSP chopped fresh Basil, 1/4 cup Chablis, and 1/4 cup Half and Half and heat over medium heat until the sauce is simmering, stirring often.
Toss the Parmesan Cream Sauce and the linguine together and serve with the Parmesan Crusted Tilapia. Sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese if desired. |
