Crumbed Fish Fillets

Instructions

1. 1

   Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and cut into portion-sized pieces if needed.

2. 2

   Set up three shallow dishes: flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder in the third.

3. 3

   Dredge each fish fillet first in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in beaten egg, and finally coat thoroughly with the seasoned breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

4. 4

   Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F) - a breadcrumb dropped in should sizzle immediately.

5. 5

   Carefully place the crumbed fish fillets in the hot oil, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

6. 6

   Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

7. 7

   Serve immediately with lemon wedges and your favorite sides like coleslaw or fries.
