Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces sea bass fillets
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cornstarch
- 1 whole egg
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1.5 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 4 pieces lemon wedges
Instructions
Rinse and pat dry the sea bass fillets with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix lemon juice, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture all over the sea bass fillets and let them marinate for about 10 minutes.
In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour and cornstarch. Mix well until combined.
In another bowl, beat the egg with water to make an egg wash.
Place the panko breadcrumbs in a separate shallow dish.
Dredge each marinated sea bass fillet in the flour mixture, then dip it into the egg wash, and finally coat it well with panko breadcrumbs.
Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
Fry each fillet for 5-6 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the fried sea bass onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
