Toasted Crumb Tilapia with Roasted Red Pepper Aioli

Ingredients
1 oz (2 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1 teaspoon lemon juice
4 fillets toasted crumb tilapia

For Aioli:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup roasted red pepper
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon chopped shallot
salt and pepper

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 325 F
2. Melt butter either on the stove or the microwave and mix with 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Lightly brush tilapia with the lemon butter.
3. Place tilipia on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Back until the fish is flaky, approximately 8-10 minutes

To prepare Aioli:
1. Combine mayonnaise, roasted red pepper, lemon juice, mustard, shallots, and salt and pepper to taste in a food processor (or use hand held immersion blender). Blend until smooth.

Serve tilipia with the aioli. Makes 4 servings.

* I served the dish on top of a bed of fresh spinach.
