This simple parmesan herb-crusted fish by Dietitian Debbie Dishes takes six ingredients and transforms it into a nutritious main dish. Serve this lean fish with some sauteed vegetables (may we suggest pan-seared brussels sprouts?) and you’ve got a healthy, evening meal.

Parmesan Herb-Crusted Fish

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces tilapia filets (or white fish of your choice)
  • 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon rosemary

Directions

Lay fish skin side down on a baking sheet.

In a small bowl, toss together the parmesan, oregano, thyme, and rosemary.

In a second small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave (about 10 seconds).

Brush butter on the upright side of the fish. Sprinkle evenly with the parmesan and herb mixture.

Turn your broiler to high heat. Put fish on a broiler rack  about 4-5 inches under the flame. Let broil for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and fish has reached an internal temperature of at least 145 degrees F. If you don’t have a thermometer, flake the fish with a fork to see if it is done.
