How to Make Alfredo Shrimp Tilapia

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and dry 4 tilapia fillets (6-8 oz each). Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season generously with Creole seasoning.
  3. Place fillets in a well-oiled baking dish. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  4. While the fish is baking, sauté 1/2 cup of thinly sliced red bell pepper in 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat for 5 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
  5. Warm 1 cup of Alfredo sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
  6. In a separate skillet, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp. Sauté for 5 minutes, or until pink and cooked through.
  7. Remove the tilapia from the oven.
  8. Divide the cooked tilapia fillets evenly among four plates (one fillet per plate).
  9. Top each fillet with 1/4 of the sautéed red peppers and 1/4 of the cooked shrimp.
  10. Spoon 1/4 cup of warmed Alfredo sauce over each serving.
  11. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese and a light dusting of additional Creole seasoning.
  12. Optional: Broil for 1 minute to lightly brown the cheese.
