Low FODMAP Broiled Parmesan Tilapia
Tilapia fish is topped with a herb, mayonnaise, butter, and Parmesan cheese mixture and quickly broiled.
Servings 4
Ingredients
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened (see note)
- 2 tablespoons light mayo (I like Hellmann’s)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- 1 lb. tilapia fillets
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- Fresh chopped parsley (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Place oven rack in its highest position and turn the oven on to broil. Line a heavy baking sheet with foil and lightly coat with cooking spray.
- In a small bowl combine the Parmesan cheese, butter, mayo, lemon juice and basil.
- Season tilapia with salt and pepper and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Broil tilapia for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip each fillet over and broil another 2 to 3 minutes. Spread fillets with Parmesan mixture and place under the broiler for another 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve topped with fresh chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
To soften butter on short notice, microwave on 30% power 15 to 30 seconds.
