Made this last night for DH's and my dinner. I used tilapia and some homemade pesto I had in the fridge. This is so easy and tasty. I did spray my panko crumbs to brown a little more. Definately a keeper. Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup tag game 2013. -
I had some leftover pesto from another recipe and I always have panko in the pantry and tilapia in the freezer. Together this made the perfect last minute meal. -
Original review, Jun 5, 2008: Love pesto - love panko - so I knew I would love this! This has got to be one of the easiest fish recipes I've ever made. DH finished his and asked, "When can we have this again?" I used tilapia filets and cooked them for about 8 minutes at 425F since that was the recommended cooking temperature on the package. Glad you posted this - I know I'll be making it many more times! Made and reviewed for Zaar Cookbooks Tag Game 2008. Update, Jun 23, 2010: I had originally given this 4 stars but need to raise it to 5 stars. This is so easy to make (although a little messy - or maybe that's just me) and is absolutely delicious! -

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I've collected recipes since I was a teen. After all these years I'm trying to get all my index cards and clippings, that still sound interesting to me, posted here so that I can find them and eventually make them! <br /> <br />I've posted some of my Mom's recipes. I regret not having paid more attention to my Grandmothers' cooking. They made some dishes that I miss and there were/are no recipes for them. <br /> <br />I have a wonderful DH and 2 wonderful sons. They are thrilled that I found this site since they directly benefit from it! Before finding 'Zaar, I was less of a cook and more of a recipe collector but now I try many more things and we're having more fun in the kitchen (at least I am)! <br /> <br />Thanks for all your ratings, comments and help in the forums AND for posting so many great recipes. You've enhanced my cooking skills and expanded my horizons! I've learned so much. <br /> <br />For fun, I also like to read fiction, travel, see movies and shows, shop (and I love to browse thrift shops and rummage/garage sales for cookbooks, etc.). <br /> <br />The discovery of a new dish does more for the happiness of mankind than the discovery of a new star Brillat-Savarin</p>
