Baked Tilapia

Tilapia is a mild flavored fish that comes together very quickly. To decrease the costs, buy frozen, plain and in bulk if possible. Defrost and cook fish as needed.

Time: ~20 minutes
Serves 5

• 5 tilapia fillets
• 2 1/2 teaspoons butter
• 2 teaspoons of Old Bay Seasoning
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 lemon, sliced thin

1. Preheat oven to 375 °. Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with tinfoil and spray with pam for easy clean up.
2. Place the tilapia fillets in the bottom of the baking dish and dot with butter (~1/2 tsp each)
3. Season with old bay seasoning and garlic salt. Top each fillet with 1-2 slices of lemon.
4. Bake for ~20 minutes, watching the fish. Once the fish begins to flake when pulled at with a fork, it is done. Remove from oven and serve with side of vegetables and whole wheat bread.
