Greek Roasted Tilapia Fillets (Low Fat)

"Tilapia has a really great, extremely subtle flavor and it doesn't dry out as easily as many other varieties of fish. This tilapia is topped with a mixture of tomatoes, feta and fresh parsley and then baked. You'll get a large portion for few calories. Just be sure to season the fillets directly with salt. That will really make a difference. From The Most Decadent Diet Ever cookbook by Devin Alexander, author of The Biggest Loser Cookbook."

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Lightly mist a medium ovenproof baking dish with spray.
  • Mix the garlic, olive oil, parsley, tomatoes, and feta in a medium bowl.
  • Lightly mist both sides of the tilapia fillets with spray, and then season both sides with salt and pepper to taste. Lay the fillets side by side, barely touching, in the prepared baking dish. Top evenly with the tomato mixture. Bake for 13 to 17 minutes, or until the tilapia flakes and is no longer translucent. Serve immediately.

  1. We really enjoyed this thanks Crafty. Tilapia isn't available in Aus, so I used some emperor fillets we had in the freezer. They were good in the sauce. I had a bit of onion in the fridge so added that in but otherwise stuck to your very simple recipe. Thanks for posting.
     
  2. Phenomenal! I made this with cherry tomatoes because I had a ton on hand... served over wilted spinach and a mix of farro, brown rice and quinoa. It was incredible! Super quick, healthy and delicious!
     
  3. Outstanding dish! We love tilapia and this is a wonderful way to prepare it. I used cherry tomatoes instead of roma as that's what I had on hand. Easy to make, healthy, and extremely flavorful - thanks for sharing the recipe!
     
  4. We don't have Tilapia in NZ so I used John Dory fillets which might be too mild for the strong flavours of feta and garlic, though DH thought it was fabulous. Personally I would leave the garlic out next time. There was one fillet left which DJH had cold for lunch and he declared it delicious this way too!! Made for Aussie / Kiwi Swap Jan 2013.
     
  5. This is a tasty and healthy treat. I really enjoyed the feta mixture atop the tiliapia fillets. The recipe is quick, easy and healthy. Thanks for posting!

<p>Update: &nbsp;I have changed my profile picture in honor of my dear best friend and loyal companion that I lost to cancer on 6/25/11. Maxx was the best dog that anyone could ever hope to have in their life. &nbsp;Until we meet again, sweet boy, you will be forever in my heart and memories. I currently live in the country with two dogs (a 12 pound&nbsp;poodle mix&nbsp;named Suki and a new member to the family, a 7-month old(?) 7.5 pound terrier mix named Angel ). &nbsp; I got Angel from the dog pound a week after I lost my beloved Maxx. &nbsp;Suki and I both needed a new companion to help us cope with our loss. &nbsp;Nothing will ever replace Maxx, but she has helped to uplift Suki's spirit. I am a secretary for a county school board. I love to cook, bake, crochet, paint, sew, read and anything to do with crafts. I was born in Tokyo,Japan. My father was in the Air Force and my moher was Japanese. I love to cook (and eat) a variety of foods from many different nations. I especially like trying out new recipes and experimenting with both old and new recipes. I also love participating in the great Zaar events like the tag games, recipe swaps, and Zaar World Tours. I recently participated in my first RSC contest. I have definitely had a lot of fun since joining Recipezaar. Update - September 20, 2007 I am proud to announce that I have just been blessed with my first grandchild. My son and daughter-in-law have given me a beautiful little granddaughter. &nbsp;[URL=http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x147/Crafty_Lady_13/?action=view&curren;t=f6fd3ae3.pbw][IMG]http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x147/Crafty_Lady_13/th_102_0365-1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Make Reservation Online Create your own visitor map *************************************************** [Reply]</p>
