Olive Garden Parmesan Crusted Tilapia

well I kind of did my own version of this. I didn't do the vegetable part because I didn't have the ingredients and I only used 3 tilpia so it wouldn't be such a large amount. I started with defrosted tilapia and used a jar of alfredo sauce and put the amount of sauce suggested in the recipe on the tilapia. Then I used the crusting mixture on them. 10 minutes wasnt enough cooking time so I did 20 at 450 degrees. I heated the remaining alfredo sauce and made angel hair pasta. I served the finished tilpia over the pasta with alfredo sauce. Yummy!
