- 2 tablespoons olive oil spray
- 1/3 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt each, and pepper, or to taste
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 2 cups cornflakes unsweetened
- 1 tablespoon lemon pepper

- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and place baking rack in the upper third of oven. Line baking sheet with foil and lightly grease with oil or cooking spray.
- Lay out three shallow bowls or pans. Add the flour, salt and pepper to the first shallow bowl. Stir with a fork to mix. Add the lightly beaten eggs to the second bowl.
- Put the cornflakes into a Ziploc Bag, press out most of the air and seal. Crush the flakes coarsely with a rolling pin. Add the lemon pepper and parsley. Pour the mixture into the third shallow bowl.
- Rinse tilapia fillets under cold running water and pat dry with paper towels. Lightly dust the fillets with the flour mixture, gently patting off any extra.
- Dip fillets, one by one, into the beaten eggs, turning over each with a fork or tongs to coat both sides.
- Place the fillet into the seasoned crushed cornflakes, turning over and gently pressing the crushed cornflakes into the fish, coating both sides well.
- Place each fillet on the lined, greased baking sheet.
- Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes. The fish is done when the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
