How to Make Panko Crusted Tilapia
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking oil.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together 2 tablespoons melted margarine, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- In a separate shallow dish, combine 1 cup panko bread crumbs and 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning.
- Dip each tilapia fillet into the butter mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Roll the buttered fillet thoroughly in the panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
- Place the coated filets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Press any remaining panko mixture onto the tops of the filets for extra crunch.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the tilapia is flaky and cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Serve immediately with lemon wedges for a burst of fresh citrus flavor.
