Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 fillets White fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia, or haddock)
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs (Panko or regular)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- 4 wedges Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until frothy. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir to evenly mix.
Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel. Dip one fillet into the egg, ensuring it’s coated on all sides, then press it into the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, coating it thoroughly. Place the coated fillet onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining fillets.
Drizzle the coated fish fillets lightly with olive oil to help them crisp up while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the crust is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let the fillets cool for 2 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve with lemon wedges on the side for a bright, zesty finish.
