Broiled Tilapia Parmesan

Fish has become one of those "healthy" foods that everyone knows they should eat more of because it is rich in Omega 3 oils, which help to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease. As for myself, I honestly have a hard time finding interesting and tasty ways to prepare fish. However, I came across this recipe recently and it has become a big hit in our family. We now eat this for lunch once a week.  It comes from All Recipes.com. I have adapted it slightly to make it gluten-free.

1/2 cup Parmesian cheese
1/4 cup butter, melted
3 Tbsp. mayonnaise
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
1/4 tsp. dried basil
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
1/8 tsp. onion powder
1/8 tsp. celery salt
2 lb. tilapia fillets, thawed and rinsed

Mix the first 8 ingredients and set aside. Place tilapia fillets on greased baking sheet. Bake or broil in oven 5-10 minutes until meat is white. Spread Parmesian mixture over each piece of fish and return to oven, baking until topping starts turning golden-brown. Remove and serve immediately.
