This was originally going to be a seafood lasagna but I had worked all day and was ready to be off my feet, so I just quickly threw this together as a casserole. It was amazing! Loved it so much that Seafood Baked Ziti is going to be a frequent flier in my dinner recipe rotation.

Delicious fish prepared with a pesto-Parmesan topping, sprinkled with panko bread crumbs and baked until the top is crispy and the fish underneath is tender and flaky.

Ingredients:

Fish fillets (tilapia is shown above)
mayonnaise
pesto
Parmesan cheese
panko bread crumbs
lemon juice

Lightly sprinkle the bottom of your baking dish with lemon juice and lay the fish fillets in the baking dish.

Mix together the next 2 ingredients. How much depends on how much fish you are cooking. Per fish fillet, use 1 tablespoon mayonnaise and 1 teaspoon pesto. Spread about a tablespoon of this sauce on top of each fish fillet. Lightly sprinkle Parmesan cheese over each fish fillet and then sprinkle Panko bread crumbs on top.

Bake in a preheated 350ºF oven for approximately 15 minutes. Test the fish to make sure it’s cooked through. It should flake easily.

This Seafood Quiche recipe is very easy and can be made ahead and refrigerated until ready to bake. Make it the night before a holiday and pop it into the oven in the morning while you get ready for the day.

You can use a pre-made pie crust if you don’t want to fuss with homemade.

Fish Tacos Recipe – Copycat Recipe Bahama Breeze Fish Tacos

Here’s the best fish tacos recipe I’ve found – it’s a copycat recipe from Bahama Breeze restaurant. Just the perfect blend of tropical flavors and spicy salsa. Give this great fish taco recipe a try. You’ll love it!

Yield: 6 tacos, 2 servings

2 tablespoons olive oil
6 (2-ounce) pieces fresh whitefish, cut 1/2-inch thick
Salt and pepper to taste
6 flour tortillas
1 1/2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
3/4 cup vine-ripened tomato salsa (see note)
1/2 of an avocado, cut into 6 slices
6 cilantro sprigs
Creamy Taco Sauce (recipe below)

Marinate the fish in a ziplock bag with lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder and adobo seasoning for 1 hour in the refrigerator.

Heat a 10-inch sauté pan on medium-high heat; add the olive oil. Place the seasoned fish in the heated pan and reduce heat to medium; sauté the fish for 2-3 minutes per side, just until it flakes easily and is cooked through to an internal temperature of 145F.

Place the flour tortillas on a dinner plate; top with a moist paper towel and microwave for 20 seconds.

Spread 2 tablespoons of creamy taco sauce around on tortilla. Place one piece of seared fish in the center of tortilla; top each piece of fish with 1/4 cup shredded iceberg lettuce, 2 tablespoons vine-ripened tomato salsa, 1 slice of avocado and 1 cilantro sprig.

How to make the vine-ripened tomato salsa: Place 1/2 cup diced vine-ripened tomatoes, 1/4 cup diced onions, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon minced jalapeno and 1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro in bowl. Using a rubber spatula gently mix until combined; keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

How to make creamy taco sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons salsa, 3 tablespoons pepper mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon honey, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons jelly (apricot, pineapple or orange marmalade will each work fine), 1/4 cup sour cream, a dash each cumin and chili powder, a couple dashes hot sauce (I used Cholula chipotle hot sauce). Keep refrigerated.

Hope you will enjoy this great fish taco recipe! It’s really the best you’ll ever have!

Fantastic Baked Fish

Tonight I made this fabulous baked fish dinner. With home cooked food this good, who needs to go out to dinner?! The next time you’re in the mood for fish, try this very easy and elegant fish recipe. It’s impressive enough to serve guests. Don’t be surprised when they beg for the recipe – yes, it’s that good!

Elegant Baked Fish Recipe:

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Chef Prudhomme’s Blackened Redfish Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
8 fish fillets
Panko bread crumbs

In a small bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients. Blend well.

Place the fish fillets in a large baking dish. Spread the mayonnaise mixture over all the fillets. Sprinkle with bread crumbs. Bake fish in a preheated 400 degree F oven for 15 minutes. (If you have a convection oven, turn on for the last 5 minutes or if not, use your broiler for a few minutes, until the bread crumbs are lightly browned.)

Serve over rice pilaf with steamed broccoli.

The first time I made this baked fish recipe, my son told me, “You blew this fish right out of the water!” Lol!. What a nice compliment, I think…

Don’t forget to share this on facebook and Pinterest!

Thanks for stopping by my blog and sharing this awesome recipe. 🙂
