1

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

2

Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly coat the foil with cooking spray.

In the first bowl, combine 1/2 cup of milk and 1/2 cup of prepared ranch dressing, whisk together and set aside.

4

In the second bowl, add 1/2 cup of flour and set aside.

5

In the third bowl, combine 1 cup of seasoned breadcrumbs and 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese.

6

Season the breadcrumbs with 1/2 teaspoon of seasoned salt, freshly ground black pepper, celery salt, garlic powder, onion powder, ground paprika, and dried parsley, then add 1/4 teaspoon of dried basil and whisk together.

7

Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the breadcrumb mixture and whisk it together.

8

Working in batches, gently press 6 oz tilapia fillets in the flour to coat, shaking off excess.

9

Dip the tilapia fillets in the ranch mixture, then place them into a large resealable plastic bag with the breadcrumb mixture and shake to coat the fish.

10

Arrange the tilapia on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the breaded fish with cooking spray if desired for an even crisper crust.

Bake in the preheated oven until the fish is easily flaked with a fork, about 20 to 25 minutes.
