Lemon Herb Baked Tilapia with Fettucine

My husband loves fish, so I made this really delicious tilapia that I served with lemon, butter fettuccine. My family loved it!  You can also find the fettuccine recipe on my blog. 

Season fish with salt, pepper, Creole seasoning, and dried thyme leaves.



Combine the lemon zest, juice with the olive oil, cooking wine, salt, pepper, rosemary and basil.

Pour the olive oil mixture over the tilapia fillets. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until tilapia flakes easily with fork.
