Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 4 tilapia fillets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, or more to taste
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder, or more to taste

• 1 cup Italian-style bread crumbs, or more as needed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Snap asparagus spears to remove tough ends. Place asparagus on a plate and drizzle olive oil over asparagus; season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Mix bread crumbs, seafood seasoning, and garlic powder together in a shallow dish. Whisk eggs together in a separate shallow dish. Dip each fillet in egg, then dredge in breadcrumb mixture.

Step 4

Cook fillets on grill until golden brown, about 10 minutes per side.

Step 5

Cook asparagus on opposite side of grill, turning occasionally, until browned and tender when pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes.
