Ingredients
- 4 tilapia fillets
- 1 egg
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ¾ cup panko bread crumbs
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- Zest of half a lemon
Instructions
- Remove one wire rack from your oven. Lightly coat the wire oven rack with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a shallow dish, stir egg, salt, and pepper.
- In another shallow dish, mix bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt, pepper, paprika, and lemon zest.
- Pat tilapia fillets dry with paper towel, then dip into the egg mixture followed by the crumb mixture.
- Use your hands to pack bread crumbs onto the tilapia.
- Arrange the fish on a single layer on the rack.
- Carefully place rack back into the oven, in the middle position.
- Place a sheet pan on the bottom rack to collect any crumbs.
- Bake for 18 minutes or until light golden brown.
- Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
Notes
- The fish is actually baked directly on your oven’s wire rack (which has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray first). This helps air circulate beneath the fish and keeps the bottom crust crunchy and crisp instead of soggy. I like to put a sheet pan under the rack to collect any rogue panko crumbs.
