Ingredients
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded 2 tbsp butter, softened 1 tbsp and 1-1/2 tsp mayonnaise 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice 1/8 tsp dried basil 1/8 tsp ground black pepper 1/8 tsp onion powder 1/8 tsp celery salt 1 pound Tilapia fillets
Directions
Preheat your oven's broiler. Grease a broiling pan or line pan with aluminum foil.
In a small bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, butter, mayonnaise and lemon juice.
Season with dried basil, pepper, onion powder and celery salt. Mix well and set aside.
Arrange fillets in a single layer on the prepared pan.
Broil a few inches from the heat for 2 to 3 minutes.
Flip the fillets over and broil for a couple more minutes. Remove the fillets from the oven and cover them with the Parmesan cheese mixture on the top side.
Broil for 2 more minutes or until the topping is browned and fish flakes easily with a fork.
Be careful not to over cook the fish.

     BEWARE! This recipe has more fat and calories than reported! Recipe says "butter" and "mayonnaise" in the ingredients, but the ingredient detail lists margarine and light miracle whip to calculate the nutrition. That increases calories to about 210 per serving, plus more fat I didn't calculate. - 7/16/09

     I just made this dish for myself and my parents and it was such a huge hit! I put the fish on top of fresh spinach (which I sprinkled with some of the parm cheese, squeezed some fresh lemon juice on it and garnished with a lemon wheel)and it looked just as delicious as it tasted! Great summer dish! - 8/2/08

     I made this for the 2nd time and decised to use Brummel and Brown and fat free mayo to cut the fat. It tasted wonderful. My 7 year old had my husband had 2 helpings because they liked it so much!! - 1/28/09

     I loved this. I don't like fish but this was great. My kids loved it also. The only trouble is that I wanted to eat a lot of it! - 1/24/09

     Incredible. Didn't have celery salt, so I subbed garlic powder. Highly recommend this even to people who "don't like fish." - 8/3/08

     This was absolutely delicious. My husband and I loved it. I would recommend putting the rack a fairly close to the broiler. I had it a little further away and it took a little longer to cook, otherwise superb. - 7/27/08

     I made this last week and my son and I LOVED it. I don't think I broiled it close enough to the heat though and next time I'll fix that. My husband said it was "OK" but what does he know? It was FABULOUS and I will make it again! - 5/18/09

     I'm not a fish eater and loved this! The only thing I had a problem with was the topping instantly running off of the fish. It was delicious though. - 4/3/09

     This is a popular dish in my house! We make extra sauce and serve it all over whole wheat pasta. Yum! - 3/12/09

     I made this and was quite pleased. I switched up the seasonings though ~ I added a dash of red pepper, a little garlic, and a pinch of kosher salt. Yummy, yummy! - 8/4/08
  • STANGSTER
     Ive made this with chicken breasts and salmon fillets as well. I love the technique, Ill have to try with the tilapia. - 7/27/08
  • MOMOFWIGGLEBOO
     Wonderful! I love how quick and easy. I made a few changes, I ran out of parmesan so I used about 1/8 cup mozz and I didn't have celery salt so I used garlic powder instead. Seriously one of the best (and cheapest) dishes I've found!! and Low cal! - 4/10/08

     We're already huge tilapia fans so having another tasty variation makes us happy! This is one the kids love too. - 7/27/08
  • VIVIENNEJO
     Great dish. Had to use few short cuts; bottled lemon juice, no basil, added parsley, & sprinke of parsley. Still tasted great. Never was fond of tilapia until this recipe. - 3/2/08
  • BEMORESTUBBORN
     My daughter (JYBEDOYA) shared this recipe with me and said it was a "flavor explosion!" She was right! It is delicious, easy to make, fast and incredibly low in calories. I'm going to use that topping on flounder next; bet it will be delicious, too... Thank you! - 3/22/07
