Spicy Parmesan Crusted Tilapia

This recipe is very easy to put together and is big on taste. You can increase or decrease the heat level by playing around with the amount of cayenne pepper. I have used Frank's RedHot Sauce in this recipe and have also used Tabasco Sauce and both where very nice.

 INGREDIENTS

1 pound tilapia filets

1/2 cup jarred grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup your favorite GF hot sauce

1 teaspoon dried parsley

Dash hot pepper flakes

Pinch garlic powder

Pinch ground cayenne pepper

DIRECTIONS

Whisk together the Parmesan cheese, dried parsley, hot pepper flakes, garlic powder and cayenne pepper and pour into a plate.

Pour the hot sauce in a shallow bowl and mix with the tilapia filets making sure they are evenly coated.

Remove the tilapia filets from the bowl and press onto the Parmesan mixture coating both sides.

Place the coated tilapia on a greased baking sheet and cook in a preheated 450 degree Fahrenheit oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until fish flakes easily when poked with a fork.

Enjoy!
