Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Fresh fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 whole Lemon, sliced for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow dish, combine gluten-free breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, chopped dill, chopped thyme, garlic powder, and lemon zest. Add salt and black pepper, and mix well to incorporate all the ingredients.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels, then dip each fillet into the beaten eggs, allowing the excess to drip off.
Immediately press the fillets into the breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides well and pressing gently to adhere the crust.
Place the coated fish fillets onto the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the top of each fillet with olive oil to help the crust turn golden and crispy.
Bake the fish in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.
Remove from oven and let rest for a couple of minutes. Serve the herb-crusted baked fish with lemon slices for garnish.
