I have been trying to have us eat fish more often. But I'm not great at seafood dishes, but I hope to get better someday. I was pursuing my cookbooks and came along this one from Better Homes & Garden. It sounded delicious & I was super pleased with the result. I will definitely make this more often, it's simple, has plenty of flavor & crunch.
4 tilapia fillets
1/4 c. milk
1/3 c. flour
1/2 - 2/3 c. regular Panko crumbs
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. Old Bay garlic & herb seasoning
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. salt
3-4 Tbl. butter, melted
1. Place milk in a shallow dish, flour in another shallow dish. In a third dish, combine panko crumbs, cheese & spices. Add melted butter to panko-cheese-spices dish & mix until well combined.
2. Dip fish in milk; coat with flour.
3. Dip again in milk, then in crumb mixture to coat all sides. Place fish on a greased baking sheet.
4. Bake, uncovered in a 450 degree oven for 4 - 6 minutes per side until fish begins to flake when tested.

Baked Chicken Fajitas
I can't believe I haven't posted this recipe yet! I've made it about half a dozen times and each time it's so yummy and everyone raves about it. It's a very simple, tasty dish that is easy to throw together in the evenings. My current tactic is to have Zak prep the veggies, since I'm not a fan of cutting onions or peppers. He has it done by the time I'm home from work, I throw everything into a big pan and bake for 20 minutes. Simple and delicious, makes a ton and is great for leftovers! The original recipe can be found here, below is what I've modified for us.
1 - 1/2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
1/2 onion, sliced
1 (total) bell pepper, seeded & sliced (I usually do 1/3 from a red, orange/yellow and green to give it a variety of color & flavor)
1 (15 oz.) can diced tomatoes, drained
2 Tbl. vegetable oil
2 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. taco seasoning
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease a 9x13" baking dish.
2. Mix together chicken, tomatoes, peppers and onion in the dish.
3. In a small bowl, combine the oil and spices. Drizzle over the chicken & vegetables and toss to coat.
4. Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
We usually get about 9-10 servings out of this! Sorry there is no picture for now, maybe I will add one later!
