Tilapia is a great choice for protein, especially if you're getting a little tired of chicken. The crunchy texture of the crust pairs well with the light, delicate meat of the fish.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole 4 oz tilapia fillets
  • ¼ cup milk (2% fat)
  • ¼ cup low-fat Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup cornmeal, whole-grain, yellow
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp steak sauce, tomato based
