Instructions
Mix together 1/4 cup flour, Parmesan cheese, thyme, dill, and salt in a shallow dish.
Pour 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 cup flour in two separate shallow dishes.
Dip tilapia fillets into plain flour, then milk.
Thoroughly coat the fillets with the seasoned flour; reserve the remaining seasoned flour.
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the fillets in the butter, about 2 minutes each side.
Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook until the fish is easily flaked with a fork, 2 to 5 minutes more.
Transfer the fillets to a dish.
Increase heat to medium, and pour the remaining seasoned flour into the skillet.
Whisk in white wine; cook and stir until reduced and thickened, about 5 minutes.
Gradually stir in 1/4 cup milk. Reduce heat to low and allow sauce to simmer for 1 or 2 minutes more.
Spoon sauce over tilapia to serve.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine
Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are great choices for Tilapia. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The Alois Lageder Terran Alpina Pinot Grigio Vigneti delle Dolomiti with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.
