Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound white fish fillet cod, tilapia, or similar, skin removed
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 tablespoon milk optional, to thin the egg wash
  • 1 1/4 cups panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • Nonstick cooking spray or 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Lemon wedges and dipping sauce for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Pat the fish dry and cut it into sticks about 1 to 1½ inches thick and 3 inches long.
    Fresh raw white fish fillets on a white plate, perfect for baked fish recipes.
  • Season the fish with salt and pepper. Place the flour in one shallow dish, the beaten egg (with milk, if using) in a second dish, and the panko breadcrumbs mixed with onion powder and paprika in a third dish.

  • Dip each fish stick in the flour first, then the egg wash, and finally coat well with panko breadcrumbs. Press the breadcrumbs gently to help them stick.
