Ingredients

1/4 cup butter softened at room temperature
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese plus more for serving
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon celery salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice
avocado oil spray or extra light olive oil
4 tilapia fillets or around 1½ pounds total
minced fresh parsley for serving

Instructions

Preheat your broiler and line a cookie sheet with foil and lightly spray with olive oil.
In a small bowl mix together; butter, mayo, parmesan, Old Bay, basil, black pepper, onion powder and celery salt. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon and set a side.
Arrange the tilapia with the dark vein (bottom) side up and broil all fish together for 3 minutes.
Remove and carefully flip the fish so they are now right side up.
Divide the parmesan mixture over each fillet and slide back into the oven for 3 more minutes or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily and the topping is golden and bubbly.
Serve with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and minced parsley.
