Method

1. Heat oven to 400 F.
2. Butter a large, shallow baking dish.
3. Arrange the tilapia fillets on the prepared baking pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Combine the butter with remaining seasonings and toss with the bread crumbs. Sprinkle the crumbs over the tilapia fillets.
4. Bake the fish fillets for 12 to 15 minutes or until fish is cooked through. To brown the topping, broil for about 1 minute or until the crumbs are lightly browned.
5. The fish will flake easily with a fork when done. The minimum safe temperature for fish is 145 F.
6. Using a spatula, carefully transfer the tilapia fillets to plates or a serving platter.
