Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Orange roughy fillets
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 as needed Olive oil spray
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Lightly spray with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Pat the orange roughy fillets dry with paper towels and set aside.
In a shallow dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In a second shallow dish, lightly beat the eggs.
In a third shallow dish, place the all-purpose flour.
Dredge each fillet in the flour, shaking off any excess. Next, dip the fillet into the beaten eggs, and then press firmly into the breadcrumb mixture to coat all sides evenly. Place the coated fillets onto the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the top of the breaded fillets with olive oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake the fish for 18-20 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges on the side.
