Parmesan Encrusted Tilapia

Found this wonderful recipe in my many travels through the good-for-you cookbooks in my stash. It's simple to make in single servings (which is why I'm not including measurements). It's super simple and soooo good! Pair it with roasted asparagus and a spinach salad. Yum!

Ingredients
tilapia filets*
egg+
parmesan, shredded^
pepper
EVOO

*I used the single-serving, flash-frozen kind from Sam's
+Egg substitute is fine
^You can use an Italian blend, too, for stronger flavor

Directions

1. Spray non-stick skillet with non-stick spray. Add 1 T EVOO and heat over medium heat.
2. Beat 1-2 eggs in small bowl.
3. Add pepper to taste (about 1/8 tsp).
4. In separate bowl, add cheese (about 1/4 per filet).
5. Dredge tilapia filet in egg, making sure both sides of filet are covered well.
6. Move filet to cheese bowl, covering each side.
7. Repeat dredging in egg and another dip in the cheese bowl.
8. Add filet to hot skillet.
9. Turn tilapia once cheese has begun to toast. Continue turning to prevent scorching, but try not to turn too often as fish will begin to flake and fall apart as it begins to finish.
10. Check often to be sure cheese isn't scorching, reducing heat if necessary.
11. Pan fry until filet is cooked through, about 10-15 minutes for thicker pieces.
