Well this recipe just sounds scrumptious! I love fish and can't wait to try this. That's great - only 5 points for dinner!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this recipe!
What a yummy fish recipe!!
ReplyDeleteI like food! Nice blog!!
Made this tonight - SOOO yummy!
ReplyDeleteMade it...Loved it...Making it again soon!
ReplyDeleteI just made this tonight with snapper and it was FABULOUS!
ReplyDeleteThis is my favorite way to make fish! I love snapper! I'll have to try that soon!!
ReplyDeleteI think I'll be making this tonight! Can I use panko breadcrumbs?
ReplyDeleteSure!
ReplyDeleteThis was fantastic with panko! My broiler was a little too intense so I might try baking the fish first and then finishing it under ther broiler. Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteAgain, so easy and so yummy. Since I've discovered your site, I've been making fish twice a week, trying a recipe of your's each week. My 3 year old has now eaten fish every meal for the past month - she would've never tried fish before. She loves it! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteMade this tonight after the gym. All ingredients were readily available. Quick, easy and tasty!
ReplyDeleteSurprisingly good! So quick to prepare. Healthy! What more could you ask?
ReplyDeleteI never cooked fish any other way than fried. In fact I tried fish baked and broiled and never liked fish any other way than fried. Now that I am trying to eat healthier, I figure why not try it again. I tried this recipe and I must say I LOVE IT!!! Healthy and delicious, what a great combination. Thanks Gina
ReplyDeleteThis was really good! Thanks :) I didn't broil it, but oven baked it...and unfortunately, I didn't have a clove of garlic. I used garlic powder instead and it would have been much better w/ the minced garlic! But still, a keeper :)
ReplyDeleteMade this tonight with a couple minor adjustments, I didn't have whole wheat bread crumbs so I used panko. I also used jarred minced garlic instead of fresh. (it's a weeknight so I was feeling a little lazy after work). Turned out excellent, was so simple and I will definitely make it again!
ReplyDeleteWould the points change if I used regular seasoned breadcrumbs?
ReplyDeleteWow, this was so easy & delicious! I used regular italian breadcrumbs & it came out great. Gina, I love your recipes.
ReplyDeleteAbout how long should this be left under the broiler for?
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of pepper did you use?
ReplyDeleteHow did you cook the asparagus in the picture? The recipe looks great!
ReplyDeleteHi, could you make this recipe with frozen tilapia?
ReplyDeleteThanks for this fabulous blog! So many great ideas! xo
