Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces cod fillets
- 1.5 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 lemon wedges
Instructions
Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels. Lightly season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the flour. In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In the third bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Dredge each cod fillet in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then, dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated. Finally, press the fillet into the panko mixture, coating it evenly on all sides. Place the breaded fillets on a plate and repeat the process with the remaining fillets.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot (but not smoking), carefully place the fillets in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the panko is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Transfer the cooked fillets to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the crispy panko cod fillets immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
