Step 1
Rinse and pat dry the sea bass fillets with paper towels.

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.
Step 7
Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
Step 8
Fry each fillet for 5-6 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
