Description

This creamy tilapia dish is quick, easy, and even better, it's healthy! Served on a bed of rice with sauce drizzled artistically around the plate, this dish is absolutely stunning.

Ingredients

butter flavored cooking spray
4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
4 teaspoons margarine, melted
7 tablespoons lemon juice, divided
4 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, divided
1 tablespoon lemon-pepper seasoning
4 teaspoons cream cheese

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking tray with cooking spray.
2 Place tilapia fillets on the prepared tray and coat them lightly with cooking spray. Spoon melted margarine over each fillet, then drizzle with 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Season with 2 tablespoons dill and lemon pepper.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.
4 Meanwhile, combine remaining 5 tablespoons lemon juice, remaining 2 tablespoons dill, and cream cheese in a small bowl. Heat in the microwave for 1 minute 10 seconds, then stir to blend.
5 Place fillets onto serving plates and spoon sauce around them in a decorative fashion.
