- 2 whole eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.5 cup whey protein powder
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0 olive oil spray
- 4 pieces optional lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
Step 3
In another shallow bowl, combine the whey protein powder, panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Pat the haddock fillets dry with paper towels.
Step 5
Dip each fillet into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it well in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing down gently to ensure the coating adheres.
Step 6
Place the breaded haddock fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Lightly spray the tops of the fillets with olive oil spray to help achieve a crispy texture.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 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 9
