Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients

4 tilapia fillets
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup marinated artichoke hearts drained and chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 garlic cloves minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley optional
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil for greasing

Equipment

Baking dish
Mixing bowl
Spoon or spatula
Oven

Method

Get Cooking: Fire up your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly brush a baking dish with olive oil.
Whip up the Crust: Take a bowl, throw in Parmesan cheese, diced artichoke hearts, mayo, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic, and parsley. Stir it up good. Add some salt and pepper for flavour.
Time for Tilapia: Put the tilapia in the baking dish and add a pinch of salt and pepper to each side.
Cover the Fish: Spread the Parmesan-artichoke mix evenly on each fillet. You want the fish fully covered.
Oven Time: Pop the dish in the preheated oven for 15–20 minutes. You'll know it's done when the fish flakes off easy and the topping is golden brown and bubbly.
Dish it Up: Sprinkle extra parsley if that's your thing, and enjoy it while it's hot.

Notes

Here are two helpful tips for your Artichoke and Parmesan Tilapia recipe:

Crispy Parmesan Topping: For a crispier topping, broil the tilapia for the last 2-3 minutes of baking. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning, and you'll get a delicious golden crust.
Enhance the Flavour: Marinate the tilapia in lemon juice and garlic for 15-20 minutes before cooking. This will infuse the fish with extra flavour and keep it tender and juicy during baking.
