My husband was still talking about this recipe the next day. He does not care for fish but he really liked this. So much so that he asked me to fix it for a luncheon for the guys he works with.
Enjoy! Debbie

That sounds Delicious!!!! I love Tilapia fish. The diced tomatos and chilies make this something that I have to make myself now. Thanks for sharing.
 
I eat copious amounts of fish, and tilapia is good! I've done the Creole/Cajun variations, but I love this Southwestern idea Miss Debbie! I'm always looking for someting different!!! Thanks for posting!! Yum!
 
Renee Attili, You are welcome. Let me know how you like it. Debbie

Uncle Bob. For once I posted something that your scale will like. I'm not all bad..;) Debbie

Barb L. I think your hubby will like it if mine did. He really doesn't like fish at all. Let me know how he likes it. Debbie
 
Made this this weekend, the only difference is I baked them on my Egg.
Absolutely YUMMY!!!!!!! If you were thinking about this recipe do it!
Thanks Ol-Blue!
 
Made this this week, everyone loved. My small change was in addition to the cumin I mixed up cumin, salt, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/4 tsp cayenne - rubbed this mixture on both sides of the filets - sprayed pan and put under the broiler on high for a few minutes to get a little color and cook in those seasonings. Then covered with the Rotel and cheeses and transferred to the oven for 15-20 minutes @ 400. It didn't even last 30 minutes in my house before being devoured. I served mine with a couscous, black bean, and corn salad. U can google that one for a recipe. YUM
 
This does sound and look good.
Thanks for bumping this up, Amy.
This was before my time and I never saw it.
