Mustard Crusted Tilapia

adapted from [allrecipes.com]

2 (6 oz) tilapia fillets (or 5 small/thin ones)
4 tbsp spicy brown mustard
2 tbsp worcestershire sauce
3 tsp lemon juice
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp oregano
4 tbsp parmesan cheese
1/2 cup crushed saltines
2 tsp italian seasoning

Spray cake pan with non-stick spray. Heat oven to 375. Place tilapia in pan and cook for 10 minutes. In the meanwhile combine mustard, worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder, oregano, and parmesan cheese. After fish has cooked for 10 minutes, remove from oven, spread mixture on fish. Sprinkle the saltines and italian seasoning over the mixture. Bake for another 5 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and broil for 1 - 2 minutes or until crust is brown and crispy.

Opinion: Eric seemed to like it a lot. I liked it but didn't love it. I will be making it again because it is a tasty way to have fish, but I'll cut down the worcestershire sauce, increase the amount of lemon juice and use some lemon zest on it as well. I think that then I'd love it.

Serves 2
