Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 2
Mix Parmesan cheese, garlic, buttery spread, almonds, mayonnaise, bread crumbs, lemon juice, seafood seasoning, basil, black pepper, onion powder, and celery salt together in a bowl.
Step 3
Arrange tilapia fillets in a single layer on the prepared pan; cover pan with aluminum foil.
Step 4
Broil in the preheated oven for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip fillets, cover pan with aluminum foil, and broil for 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove aluminum foil and cover fillets with Parmesan cheese mixture. Broil in the oven until fish flakes easily with a fork and topping is browned, about 2 more minutes.
Step 5
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a broiling pan with aluminum foil or spray with olive oil cooking spray.
