Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets (cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1.5 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups parmesan cheese (grated)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease the parchment with olive oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and set aside. This ensures better coating adhesion.
Set up three shallow bowls for dredging. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. In the third bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Dredge each fish fillet into the flour, shaking off any excess. Dip the floured fillet into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated. Finally, press the fillet into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure an even coating on all sides.
Place the coated fillets onto the prepared baking sheet. Lightly drizzle or spray the top of each fillet with olive oil to help with browning and crisping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, flipping the fish halfway through to ensure even crisping. The fillets should be golden brown and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Remove from the oven and let rest for 2 minutes before serving. Serve with lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or your favorite dipping sauce.
Enjoy your super crunchy oven-fried fish that is sure to knock your socks off!
