Ingredients

• 4 tilapia filets (I used fresh, but I think frozen should work too)
• 3 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
• 1/4 cup grated/shredded parmesan cheese
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon thyme
• salt and pepper to taste
• lemon slices for serving

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

2. Pat tilapia dry (if frozen, it should be thawed first) with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper. Lay on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick spray and bake for 10-12 minutes. While fish is baking, mix butter with garlic, thyme and parmesan cheese.

3. Remove fish from oven and gently flip. Spread about 1/2 tablespoons of butter mixture on the fish, and heat the broiler in your oven. Set fish under the broiler for about 2-3 minutes, or until cheese gets golden and bubbly.

4. Serve with lemon.
