Ingredients

• 4 pieces White fish fillets (such as cod, haddock, or tilapia)
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 pieces (for serving) Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 3

In another shallow dish, beat the eggs and whisk in the milk until well combined.

Step 4

In a third shallow dish, mix the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, and paprika.

Step 5

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.

Step 6

Dredge each fish fillet first in the flour mixture, coating both sides and shaking off any excess.

Step 7

Dip the floured fillet into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.

Step 8

Press the fillet into the breadcrumb mixture, covering it completely and pressing the crumbs onto the surface for an even coat.

Step 9

Place the breaded fish fillets onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 10

Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the fish fillets to help them brown and crisp up during baking.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy. The internal temperature of the fish should reach 145°F (63°C).

Step 12

Remove the fish fillets from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes on the baking sheet.

Step 13

Serve the breaded fish fillets immediately with fresh lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
