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.

1 cup alfredo sauce
3/4 lb shrimp, cleaned,shelled and deveined
2 tablespoons creole seasoning

3 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons butter, divided
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
3 tablespoons grated romano cheese or parmesan cheese, for topping

Preheat oven to 425*.
2
Wash and dry tilapia filets, spread with olive oil and creole seasoning, to your taste.

4
While fish is baking, saute slivers of red pepper in 1 tbs butter,until cooked, about 5 minutes.
5
Warm alfredo in a small saucepan.
6
In a frypan, melt 3 tbs butter, add minced garlic and cleaned, prepared shrimp, saute for about 5 minutes.

This was my first time cooking and eating tilapia. Outstanding! We really liked the flavor of the tilapia and this recipe was awesome. It was easy enought to make on a busy weeknight, but tasted like a special dinner. Thanks for a great recipe!

This is a keeper! My husband loves RT's but we have to drive two hours to go there ~ no more! I just spiced up my Grandmother's white sauce for this instead of using Alfredo ~ added some parmesan and sour cream. Used Soul Seasoning (Creole) on the fish. Had frozen cooked shrimp on hand ~ SO easy. Thanks for the recipe!!

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.

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!!
