This is my version of Ruby Tuesday's New Orleans Tilapia. Tilapia fillets are baked then topped with alfredo sauce, sauteed red peppers and garlic cooked shrimp. I'm not very good at copycatting recipes, but we had this last night and it was mighty fine.

I did not use the red peppers. Being from Louisiana, I used quite a bit of Tony Chachere's. Everyone raved about this. It was quick and easy and will definitely be made again!

    This was a really good recipe, I mixed up my own cajun seasonings and pan seared the fish instead of broiling it(blackened) I also didn't have a Red Bell but I used roasted red pepper alfredo sauce. I served it Just like Ruby Tuesdays with steamed broccoli and wild rice. My husband and I were enjoying an empty nest due to the kids on Spring break but still wanted to save money, we felt just like we were in the restaurant and paired it with a glass of white wine.

    This was just fabulous!! I made this for a dinner party for 5 people and everyone was giving accolades for how yummy this meal was. The only change I made was to roast the red bell pepper, then peel and slice after it cooled. I did broil the fish for just a moment after adding the alfredo sauce and parmesan cheese. I served this with a side of roasted asparagus and fettuccini with mushrooms and spinach. This is one special meal. Thanks so much!!

    This dish had simple preparation, but wonderful flavor. I used Alfredo Sauce for the Alfredo Sauce. The blend of flavors was excellent. I made extra alfredo sauce for a side of fettuccine and also served roasted asparagus. Divine meal.
