    I don't understand if I'm supposed to use corn tortillas or tortilla chips. Many of the comments say they used chips. Also, I cannot imagine that the corn tortillas pieces together with the other ingredients form "crumbs" when blended in a blender. Do they? THANKS!

    Tortilla Crusted Tilapia, I’m not fond of fish, but even I like this dish. Tilapia is mild, and the spicy crust is very appealing. I like to make the crumb crust in bulk and freeze in meal sized amounts. Then this becomes a super quick weeknight meal., I don’t understand if I’m supposed to use corn tortillas or tortilla chips. Many of the comments say they used chips. Also, I cannot imagine that the corn tortillas pieces together with the other ingredients form “crumbs” when blended in a blender. Do they? THANKS!, This recipe also works with pork chops or chicken. I usually keep some in my freezer for a super quick meal.
