Tilapia tacos



8 oz tilapia, cut into several pieces
1/3 cup oil
6 corn tortillas
1 bell pepper, chopped (I used half of a yellow one and half of a red one)
juice of one lemon
2 t chili powder
1 t cumin
6 T reduced fat sour cream

Add 2 T of the oil to a hot pan, and add fish, peppers, lemon juice, and seasonings. Sautee until the fish is fully cooked, breaking it up into smaller pieces as you cook. Add the remaining oil to another pan, and fry each tortilla for about 60 seconds on each side on high heat. Serve with sour cream. Makes six tacos. Nutrition info is for one taco.

Parmesan crusted tilapia recipe

16 oz tilapia filets (about 4)
1/4 cup grated parmesan
1/4 cup lightly salted bread crumbs
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 egg, beaten

Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Mix together cheese, breadcrumbs and pepper on a plate or shallow bowl. Coat each filet with beaten egg, then coat generously with the breadcrumb and cheese mixture. Arrange on a non-stick cookie sheet. Bake at 325 degrees for about 12-14 minutes until fish flakes easily with a fork. You don't want to over bake it or the fish will be dry. Nutrition info is for 1/4 of recipe (it is adjusted for the fact that you only use half of the egg).
