Crispy Baked Parmesan Crusted Tilapia

Here is my new ‘go to’ when I’m craving fried fish.

  • ½ cup Fiber One Cereal (or all bran)
  • ¼ Parmesan Cheese
  • Italian Seasoning
  • Garlic Powder
  • Salt & Pepper
  • 1 egg beaten in bowl
  • Non-stick cooking spray

This would work with any fish.  I just happened to have 3 tilapia fillets ready to go.  


Place all ingredients Fiber One Cereal, Parmesan Cheese, Italian Seasoning, Garlic Powder, Salt & Pepper in the blender to make the breading. Dip fillets in egg then dip in breading to coat. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray, place fillets on sheet and spray tops with non-stick cooking spray.

I broiled them 2 racks from the top for about 3-4 minutes a side. They came out nice and crunchy.  Even hubby liked them!

I easily breaded 3 fillets with this recipe and had about ½ left over.  You could probably stretch it to about cover at least 5-6 fillets.

This sounds wonderful! Do you have a POINT count?

Thanks so much!

Sounds fabulous! I also would like to know point count…
Love your website. I reference it now every day! I am down to my last 10 pounds, and find your website to help me keep my motivation.

THIS ROCKS!! Thank you Roni! Toddler Approved even!!

We made this and figured it was 6ish pts. a piece since the pts. are really just in the fish and we added 1 pt. per piece for the crust. My son has been on a meat strike but we still make him take one bite of everything on his plate. he loooooved this and asked for more. We were floored. He ate 1/2 of mine too. This goes into rotation for sure.

This is yummy!! I changed it up a bit and used dover cod, but still so good!! The hubby and dad liked it too!! Thanks for the idea!

@ michele - I would count the fish points and then add one for the “breading”.

Way to go Roni!! We ate the Tilapia tonight… wonderful, tasty, and crunchy! Thanks for a great recipe. I see that there were questions about the Tilapia points. I bought mine frozen. The package said a serving is 4-oz raw, and the filets were individially flash frozen. 4-oz is 100 calories, 0 fiber and 2.5 total fat. With the WW Points finder that calculated to just 2 little points! Even after coating the two filets I cooked, I still had crumbs left over. I also used “egg beaters” because I was out of regular eggs. Also, we ate some “Kimchi” with it. Have you tried it? It comes in a jar in the produce section of WalMart or ShopRite. You can get it medium or hot. My husband and I both figured out that when you eat hot/spicy foods, it makes you feel full longer. That’s just our observation - thought I’d pass it along. Thanks again!! Mira

I made these this evening and I am really not a big fish person but these were pretty good! Thanks!

Old Bay is a great seasoning blend for all seafood. I have used it on talapia and it’s great. Love your recipe.

I made this last night and it was YUMMY! I used Total instead of All Bran and did it under the broiler. I used two large tilapia fillets and barely had enough breading, though. So next time I will probably a bit more of everything.

I used the Fiber One Cereal and was a bit skeptical at first but it turned out awesome! I used two tilapia filets and used the ingredients suggested and had plenty of breading left over. I will definitely use this recipe again.
