Parmesan Pesto Tilapia


Description

This simple Parmesan pesto tilapia is broiled to a cheesy golden perfection and topped with pesto and fresh chopped tomatoes. Just 5 ingredients.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 6-ounce tilapia filets
  • 1/4 cup basil pesto
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup fresh chopped tomatoes
  • salt, pepper, lemon juice, melted butter

Instructions
