Tilapia isone of my favorite fish and I enjoy new flavors with it. The lemon sauce is light and not too tart or tangy. I recommend this recipe.

My husband loves this! I reduced the ingredients to serve 2; using only about 1/8 c light mayonaisse. The Parmesan & lemon flavors meld wonderfully. Very quick, tasty way to get fish into weekly meals.
