Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the @baby potatoes{24%ounce} in a #pot{} of water with a large pinch of @salt{}. Cut any larger potatoes in half so they all cook evenly. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for ~{15%minutes} to ~{20%minutes}, until easily pierced with a #knife{}. We'll be adding the @carrots{2%unit} to the #pot{} later, so keep an eye on the time!

Mince or grate the @garlic{4%clove}. Peel the carrot and cut it into sticks 2 inches long and 1/2-inches thick (as if you'd be dipping them in hummus!). Zest the @lemon{2%unit} with a #zester{} and cut into wedges. Finely chop the @parsley{2%bunch}.

In a #bowl{}, combine @parmesan cheese{½%cup}, @dried oregano{2%tsp}, lemon zest, @panko breadcrumbs{½%cup}, half the garlic, and 1 teaspoon @olive oil{2%tbsp}. Season with salt and @pepper{}.

Place the @tilapia{4%fillet} fillets on an oiled #baking sheet{}. Drizzle each tilapia fillet with one teaspoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Top each fillet with half the panko mixture and press to adhere. Place in the oven and bake for about ~{8%minutes}, until the fish is slightly opaque and easily flakes with a #fork{}. Hint: If you'd like, turn on the broiler and place the fillets under the heat source for about ~{1%minute}, until the crust is golden brown. Make sure to keep an eye on it, it can burn quickly!

When the potatoes are almost ready, add the carrots to the #pot{} with the potatoes and cook for about ~{5%minutes}, until crisp-tender. Drain and return to the pot. Add the @butter{2%tbsp}, remaining garlic, and a pinch of parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing, for ~{1%minute} or ~{2%minutes}, until garlic is fragant.

Serve the tilapia with the potatoes and carrots to the side. Finish with squeeze of lemon and remaining parsley.
