Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204 degrees Celsius).
Combine the chips and seasonings in a pie plate or another shallow dish.
Place the egg white in a separate shallow dish, and the flour in a third shallow dish.
Pat the fish dry and dredge through the flour, shaking off any excess, then through the egg white, and finally through the chips.
Place on a foil-lined baking sheet and place in the preheated oven for 10-14 minutes, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.

Notes

Store any leftover Tortilla Crusted Tilapia in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where it will stay good for up to 2 days. While freezing is possible, it may affect the texture and crispiness of the crust.
For reheating, it's best to use an oven or toaster oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) for about 10 minutes or until heated through.
