Description

This is an easy and delicious way to prepare fish. The fresh herbs add a nice fresh flavor and the panko makes for a light and crispy result.

Ingredients

  • 6 pieces Tilapia
  • 1 pinch Salt And Pepper
  • 1 cup Flour
  • 2 whole Large Eggs, Beaten
  • 2 Tablespoons Water
  • 1-¼ cup Japanese Panko Crumbs
  • 2 Tablespoons Fresh Chives, Finely Chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons Fresh Flat Parsley, Finely Chopped
  • 3 Tablespoons Canola Oil

Preparation

1) Line a cookie sheet with Reynold’s non stick foil and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2) Rinse and drain fish fillets, pat dry with paper towel. Season with salt and pepper.
3) You will need three containers to bread the fish. Into the first, pour the flour. Into the second, the beaten eggs and water. Into the third, the panko crumbs, parsley, and chives. Mix well to distribute herbs.
4) Heat a non stick skillet over medium high heat and add 1 1/2 tablespoons oil to the pan. Working one at a time and in this order, dip each seasoned fillet into the flour, then into the egg mixture, then into the panko. Press crumbs into fish. Carefully place fish into the hot and oiled pan. Cook 2-3 minutes on the first side and then flip and cook another 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan and place onto the prepared cookie sheet. Repeat for all of the remaining fish pieces. Bake for 15 minutes. Enjoy!

* Note: If you’re making this for a dinner party, prepare the fish all the way to the oven step. Place in a container and use wax paper between layers. Then when you are ready, simply bake for 20 minutes before you’re ready to serve.

I’m trying to lose some weight, which is difficult with all of the great recipes on this site! How do you think this would be without the frying step? I’m going to try it by putting them straight in the oven and upping the bake time a bit.

Made it for dinner tonight – turned out very well. The panko kept it extra crispy, even after the oven step (and even though I jammed the tilapia all together on one small-ish baking sheet). I’ll make it again for sure.

Great make ahead recipe. My family loved this – even my toddler! I thought the fish would be dried out after the oven time, but it was still moist and delicious!
