Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces fresh grouper fillets
- 2 pieces whole wheat burger buns
- 1 cup low sodium panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 sliced tomato
- 2 tablespoons low sodium mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, beat the egg and milk together.
In another bowl, combine the low sodium panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and lemon zest.
Dip each grouper fillet into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the coated fillets on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle each with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
While the fish is baking, mix the low sodium mayonnaise with lemon juice in a small bowl.
Toast the whole wheat buns lightly on a separate rack in the oven or a toaster.
Spread the mayonnaise mixture on the bottom half of each bun.
Top with shredded lettuce and tomato slices.
Place the crispy grouper on the buns, add the top half of the bun, and serve immediately.
