Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces White fish fillets (e.g., cod or tilapia)
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 piece Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- as needed Olive oil spray
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil spray.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Set up three bowls for the breading process. In the first bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. In the second bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. In the third bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, and dried parsley.
Dredge each fish fillet in the flour mixture, making sure to coat it thoroughly, then shake off any excess.
Dip the floured fish into the egg mixture, coating both sides evenly.
Press the fish into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring an even coating and gently pressing to adhere the breadcrumbs.
Place the breaded fillets onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
Lightly spray the tops of the fish with olive oil spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 2 minutes. Serve immediately with optional lemon wedges on the side.
