Ingredients

• 4 pieces White fish fillets (cod, tilapia, or haddock)
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crispiness)
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 large Eggs, beaten
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 0 as needed Cooking spray or olive oil
• 4 pieces Lemon wedges (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil, and lightly spray it with cooking spray or brush with olive oil.

Step 2

Prepare three separate bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel. This helps the coating stick better.

Step 4

Dredge each fish fillet in the flour, ensuring it's lightly coated. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 5

Dip the floured fish into the beaten eggs, making sure it's fully covered.

Step 6

Finally, press the fish into the breadcrumb mixture, coating all sides evenly. Gently press the crumbs onto the fillet to ensure they adhere well.

Step 7

Place the breaded fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart for even cooking.

Step 8

Lightly spray the tops of the fish fillets with cooking spray or drizzle a small amount of olive oil on each fillet. This helps achieve a golden, crispy texture.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The breadcrumbs should be golden and crispy.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the fish rest for a minute or two before serving.

Step 11

Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side and your favorite accompaniments like tartar sauce, coleslaw, or roasted vegetables.
