Yummy Ways to Serve Parmesan Tilapia

Parmesan crusted tilapia can be served like a sandwich over a piece of no-knead bread with a layer of tartar sauce. Flake the tilapia and make it into a fish taco with homemade tortillas and your favorite taco ingredients. Purple cabbage salad is a great coleslaw-like salad to use in a fish taco. Or, pair the tilapia with a starch like baked potatoes and your favorite vegetable or salad dish like air fryer asparagus, marinated mushrooms, broccoli cauliflower salad, or creamy cucumber salad.

Storing and Reheating Baked Tilapia

It’s no secret that parmesan crusted tilapia has the best texture when enjoyed immediately. If you do need to store the fish for later, be prepared to lose some of that crispness or spend some extra effort reheating it.

Refrigerating: To keep for three to four days, store cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Freezing: To keep for up to three months, store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
Reheating in the oven: To regain some crisp, reheat tilapia in the oven at 350°F until warm.
Reheating in the air fryer: For crispy leftovers, reheat in the air fryer at 350°F until warm.
