Introduction

I don't like fish much, but I love this baked tilapia recipe! I think the sauce can be used with other fish/seafood. I don't like fish much, but I love this baked tilapia recipe! I think the sauce can be used with other fish/seafood.

    Tilapia is one of my favorite fish because it's so mild and flaky. The sauce is great, and I added capers to give it just a little something extra. You've got a real winner with this one! Thanks for sharing!!! - 2/6/09

    This was great! I made it with some brown rice and Asparagus Asiago (recipe here on SparkRecipes!). It was a nice combination. Instead of tilapia we used salmon (they were out of tilapia at the store we went to) and it was still delicious. We eat fish regularly so this is a keeper. Thanks! :o) - 1/12/09

    Sounds wonderful but I'll use fresh garlic in place of garllic powder and omit the salt. - 8/10/08

    Fabulous! I didn't broil it at the end because it looked perfect and I didn't want to risk drying it out. I added extra cayenne because I love spicy food. It was great! Very moist! - 4/18/09

    This was so simple and really delicious! I served it with whole wheat thin spaghetti mixed with spinach sauteed in garlic and a small amount of olive oil. Very great recipe! I will definitely make it again! - 6/30/09
