Fisher of Men

It's been said that the fish Jesus used to feed the multitudes was Tilapia. Although the Bible doesn't mention the specific kind of fish that was caught, I like to believe it is. Tilapia is such a clean, mild-flavored fish and one of my family's favorites. One evening, on a whim, I threw together a few simple ingredients for something different and, thankfully, they approved - the fish was consumed so quickly, I wasn't able to photograph it or even try it!

Baked Tilapia

Fresh tilapia fillets
Olive oil
Garlic powder
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Parmesan cheese
Italian seasoning

Preheat your oven to 375 F. Arrange the fillets in a lightly greased glass baking dish. According to your taste, sprinkle the rest of the ingredients over the fish and bake for about 15 - 20 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork.

Does it get any simpler than that? Serve with a simple salad, your favorite bread, and all will be right with the world.

Now, go save the day, Mom.
