Blackened Tilapia - Super easy and very quick - a great place for a beginner seafood chef to start!

Ingredients:
4 Tilapia fillets
Paul Prudhomme's seasoning either Blackened Redfish Magic if you want it with some spice - or more plain is his Seafood Magic - I actually use a mixture of both
4 Tbls butter - could use fat-free Pam Spray for fewer calories

Directions:
Heat grill to high. Dip fillets in melted butter (or spray). Generously sprinkle seasoning on both sides of fillet. Spray grill with non-stick coating spray. Place fillets on hot grill and cook 2 minutes on each side.

Serve and enjoy your meal!!!

Crumb-topped Scrod
Taste of Home Light & Tasty
Ingredients:
3 Tbls reduced-fat mayonnaise
3Tbls grated Parmesan cheese, divided
2 tsp mustard seeds
¼ tsp pepper
4 scrod fillets (about 6 ounces each) you can grab these at the grocery seafood counter
1 cup soft bread crumbs
1 green onion, chopped
¼ tsp ground mustard
2 tsp butter, melted

Directions:
Combine the mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, mustard seed and pepper, spread over tops of fillets. Place on broiler pan coated with non stick cooking spray. (I use cookie sheet covered with foil and grease with olive oil) Broil on low rack for 3-5 minutes.
Meanwhile in small bowl combine the bread crumbs, onion, ground mustard and remaining Parmesan cheese, stir in the melted butter. Spoon over fillets, spritz topping with non stick cooking spray. Broil another 3 minutes or until golden brown.
