Bruschetta Tilapia with Balsamic Glaze
Thank you to Bumble Bee for sponsoring this post.
Get a healthy dinner on the table in under 30 minutes with this Bruschetta Tilapia! Oven roasted Tilapia is topped with the best ever bruschetta, then drizzled with a balsamic glaze!
We started eating fish a lot more when we moved to Hawaii a little over three years ago. Before that, the extent of my fish eating repertoire was mostly tuna salad and the occasional shrimp dish, which I usually preferred deep fried! Since then, I’ve gotten to try so many tasty and delicious kinds of fish, and I’m proud to say that I even enjoy “poke,” a raw fish salad that’s hugely popular here in Hawaii!
Now that I’ve grown to love fish so much, it’s become a frequent staple on our dinner table. My kids even enjoy it, and that makes dinner time a lot easier and less stressful when they’re on board with what we’re eating. One of my favorite types of fish to prepare is tilapia thanks to its mild flavor, and the fact that it lends itself well to different toppings and flavors.
As much as I enjoy fish, though, sometimes it’s not always so simple to prepare. You have to make sure it’s cooked just right (no over or undercooked fish, please!) and if you buy it fresh, it needs to be cooked soon after buying or else it will spoil.
After dealing with these kinds of issues before and feeling discouraged, I was really excited to discover the new Bumble Bee SuperFresh® line of frozen fish! It’s a complete line of naturally-seasoned, restaurant quality, “fish-forward” prepared seafood solutions for the home. It really raises the bar for what seafood lovers can expect from frozen food! They have all different kinds of fish to choose from including salmon, ahi tuna, and my personal favorite, tilapia.
Seriously y’all, never has it been so easy to enjoy a delicious, premium tilapia fillet! This Bumble Bee SuperFresh® Tilapia is made with ground black pepper, fresh garlic, sea salt, and extra virgin olive oil—making every flaky bite fantastic. I made it into bruschetta tilapia by adding my favorite bruschetta on top along with a balsamic glaze, and it made for a healthy and super yummy dinner.
One of the things I like best about the Bumble Bee SuperFresh® seafood is that it’s no mess, and no fuss. Their premium Salmon and Tilapia come with their own parchment paper baking pouches and go from freezer to table in under 25 minutes. They’re high in protein, and seasoned with pure and simple ingredients that let the fish shine through. That’s one of the things I loved most about this dish; simple, yet versatile and delicious flavors.
You can find Bumble Bee SuperFresh® in the frozen seafood section, typically near the seafood counter, at your local grocery store. Click here to find what stores carry it in your area.
Hope you enjoy this Bruschetta Tilapia, y’all!
Recipe: Bruschetta Tilapia with Balsamic Glaze
Ingredients
- 1 package Bumble Bee SuperFresh® Tilapia with Garlic & Extra Virgin Olive Oil,, 2 fillets
Bruschetta:
- 4 Roma tomatoes,, seeds removed and diced
- ⅓ cup red onion,, diced
- 1½ teaspoons minced garlic
- 1½ teaspoons dried basil

- 1 Tablespoon fresh basil,, chopped
Balsamic Glaze:
- 1/2 - 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Heat Balsamic vinegar over medium heat in a heavy bottomed sauce pan, stirring occasionally. Continue to simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until reduction thickens enough to coat a spoon. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- While balsamic vinegar cooks, bake tilapia in the preheated oven according to package directions.
- To make the bruschetta, combine all bruschetta ingredients in a medium sized bowl and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

I LOVE the look of this! It looks delicious and so many amazing flavours together; I’m obsessed with balsamic anything, so this is right up my street!
I had no idea such a convenient option was available! That would make dinner much easier, and I love the topping you added. Balsamic glaze is my fave.
This is a BumbleBee Product?? I had no idea these even existed. You’ve made a beautiful dish!
This looks delicious! Thank you for sharing!
WOW! Looks so decadent and delicious! Such a great idea for hosting!
Love bruschetta and this looks like a super healthy alternative to bread!
What a gorgeous fresh and tasty looking dinner – it looks nice and easy to make too which is great for busy weeknights!
Haha so how much did you get paid to advertise bumble bee?? You mentioned it like 2-3 times a paragraph. Thanks for posting the recipe going to try it tonight although with frozen tilapia from Sams Club
Tilapia is on our weekly rotation but this rendition is new to me so I have to try it out..
According to the BumbleBee web site this product isn’t available locally but, I always have frozen tilapia on hand so, I will make it work..
Thank you… :O)
It should work just fine with the frozen tilapia you have, Ross. Hope you enjoy it! 🙂
Tilapia is one fish that my family will actually eat so this will be a nice addition to my recipe box! We don’t eat a ton of seafood since we don’t live on the coast but If we lived somewhere like Hawaii we totally would. We didn’t try poke last time we were there but it’s on my to try list next time we visit!
Those Bumble Bee fish packets are some of my favorites! They make it so easy to cook a fast dinner.
I haven’t seen these in the stores yet around here, but I am definitely looking for them this week! 🙂 We do not eat much seafood in our home- mainly because we are landlocked here in WV, lol. But this Bumble Bee SuperFresh seafood looks like the perfect solution for us! 🙂
I never want to eat tilapia any other way! Delish!
I cannot wait to try this! Bruschetta is the best!
What a wonderful way to flavor Talapia
Ashlyn I love this recipe so much! I cant wait to dig in
