Broiled Tilapia with Parmesan
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1 tablespoon low fat mayonnaise
2 tablespoons low-fat plain Greek yogurt
Juice and zest of one small lemon (about 2 tablespoons juice)
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 (6 to 8 ounce) farm-raised tilapia fillets
Method
Combine 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese with remaining ingredients (except fish). Coat fillets with mixture and place in baking dish or shallow platter and let marinate for 15–20 minutes. Preheat broiler. Place fillets on a foil-lined broiler pan. Spoon a few tablespoons marinade on top and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan. Broil 4–6 inches from heat for 5–8 minutes or until topping is lightly browned. The fish is ready when it flakes easily with a fork.
Note: this can be paired well with roasted potatoes and cooked vegetable (i.e. swiss chard, spinach, green beans, bok choy, etc)
