Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces White fish fillets (cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 as needed Cooking spray or additional olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray or olive oil.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and lay them on a clean plate. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Brush the marinade evenly onto both sides of each fish fillet, ensuring they are well-coated. Let the fish marinate for 10 minutes as you prepare the breadcrumb topping.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and chopped parsley. Stir well to evenly mix.
Gently press the breadcrumb mixture onto the top side of each marinated fish fillet until fully coated. Leave the underside bare to prevent sticking during cooking.
Transfer the fish fillets to the prepared baking sheet, breadcrumb-side up.
Lightly spray or drizzle additional olive oil over the breadcrumb topping to help it crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve immediately with a wedge of lemon and your choice of side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or a crisp green salad.
