A quick and yummy way to prepare crispy tilapia the whole family will love, without frying. I get asked to make this several times a week by everyone in my family, especially the kids!

½ cup milk

½ cup prepared ranch dressing

½ cup all-purpose flour

1 cup dry bread crumbs

Direction
-
Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
-
Line an 11-17-inch baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly spray with cooking spray.
-
Mix milk and ranch dressing in a shallow bowl. Place flour in a separate shallow bowl; set aside.
-
Whisk together bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, seasoned salt, black pepper, celery salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, parsley, and basil in a bowl.
-
Spray bread crumb mixture with cooking spray until damp, then whisk bread crumbs. Repeat spraying and whisking 3 more times to lightly moisten crumb mixture with cooking spray.
-
Transfer crumb mixture to a large resealable plastic bag.
-
Gently press tilapia fillets into the flour to coat, and shake off the excess flour.
-
Dip the fillets into the ranch dressing mixture.
-
Place all the fillets into the resealable plastic bag; seal bag and shake to coat fish with bread crumb mixture.
-
Arrange tilapia on prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the breaded fish with cooking spray.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until the fish is easily flaked with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes.
