Ingredients
- 4 tilapia fillets, about 1-1/4 lbs
- 1 to 1-1/4 cups fresh breadcrumbs
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, garlic, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, salt, pepper and parmesan cheese.
- Brush the fish fillets with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, top evenly with the crumb mixture, patting gently with the back of a spoon to be sure it adheres well.
