• put bread crumbs into a shallow dish.
• gently press tilapia fillets into bread crumbs to coat. gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. place the breaded tilapia a plate while breading the rest; do not stack.
• heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
• cook tilapia in hot oil until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. transfer cooked fillets to a plate.
• top each fillet with salsa; cook in microwave to get the salsa hot, about 15 seconds.
