pamesan, panko crusted tilapia w/didi's chutney
My friend; Didi Dalaba here on JAP makes the BEST Peach/Mango/Jalapeno Chutney (canning recipe) you've ever tasted! I went looking for a recipe for fish just so I could use her Chutney recipe (other than just eating it out of the jar). It was absolutely outstanding on this Tilapia! This recipe was inspired from a recipe on "Sweet Chef" blogg. I adjusted the spices to my liking and added parmesan cheese. I've added salt to the ingredients, if you are watching your salt intake, just omit the salt. Hope you enjoy!! And, look up Didi's Chutney, it is awesome!! My photo
