This crispy baked tilapia recipe has a hint of spice from the chipotle seasoning. Not too much, just enough to make it an amazing way to serve delicious flaky fish!
2 to 4tilapia filletshealthy cuts at least 1/2" thick at the center (if you get thinner, reduce the cook time as needed)
1tbspchipotle mayo
3/4 - 1cupchipotle panko breadcrumbssub regular if needed
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375. Spray an oven safe skillet or baking dish with cooking spray.
Rinse the tilapia fillets and pat them dry.
Arrange fillets in the skillet and spread a thin layer of chipotle mayo over each.
Press the panko over each making sure it stays in a nice layer.
Place in oven and cook for 15-20 minutes, checking doneness with a fork.
Notes
Tilapia flakes very easily so use a nice flat and wide spatula to flip it. You can substitute any fish, white or pink even, like basa, salmon, halibut, and trout.
