Parmesan Herb-Crusted Fish : Low Carb : Keto


This simple parmesan herb-crusted fish dish takes six ingredients and transforms it into a nutritious main dish. Serve this lean fish with some sautéed vegetables like pan-seared brussels sprouts, or some nice crunchy fine green beans, and you’ve got a healthy, evening meal.

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 grill / broiler to high heat. Put fish on a grill / broiler rack about 4-5 inches under the flame / heat. Let grill / 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.

  8. I tend to just fry our fish. The spices are a nice touch. I must admit that I cook the way I garden: "Oh, let's put this, and this, and this in!"
    Of course, I can't add dairy, yeast or eggs, due to hubby's issues. I used to be more creative!

    Hello there, and many thanks for your comment.

    Tilapia is "an underrated, firm-textured, white-fleshed fish. The majority of tilapia are farmed around the world. They are a resilient and adaptable as a species, and can be found in both fresh and saltwater. They also adapt well to the different climates in which they’re farmed.

    Tilapia are sometimes sold whole, but more often as fillets. The fish are available fresh or frozen. As they’re farmed, whole tilapia should be fresh and still in rigor mortis as they’re likely to have reached their destination quickly.

    Tilapia fillets require no preparation at all. If presented with a whole tilapia, gut it and remove the thick armour of scales. Tilapia is a versatile ingredient. It complements many different flavours, and the firmness of its flesh makes it excellent for pan-frying, grilling, or deep-frying in a crisp beer batter."

    For the recipe featured either Tilapia or any white fish may be used.
