Best Breaded Tilapia Fillets Recipes

BAKED BREADED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Place the tilapia pieces on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper and set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the bread crumbs, parsley, garlic, and butter.
• Divide the breadcrumb mixture between the fish pieces and coat them evenly. (Press the breadcrumbs with your hands or the back of a spoon slightly, to make sure they are covering the fish nicely.)
• Now, the only step left is to bake these beauties. You'll need to bake the fillets for about 15-20 minutes, depending on how thick they are. I would suggest keeping an eye on the fish during the last 3 minutes, as the breadcrumbs can easily burn.

PANKO-CRUSTED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Put flour and eggs into 2 separate dishes. Combine bread crumbs, cilantro, lime zest, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper in a third dish.
• Season tilapia fillets with salt and pepper. Put 1 fillet in flour, coat both sides, and gently shake off excess. Dip into eggs, turning once, then dredge in the bread crumb mixture to coat. Repeat with remaining fillets.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place fillets in the skillet and cook until crust is golden and fish is easy to lift with a spatula, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook on the other side until fish flakes easily with a fork, another 3 to 4 minutes.

BREADED PAN-FRIED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• If using breadcrumbs, proceed to Step 4. If using panko crumbs, put them in a food processor with the seasonings-salt, paprika, onion powder, thyme, pepper, and parsley flakes; process until the crumbs are quite fine.
• In a small bowl, combine the mustard and mayonnaise. Generously coat tilapia fillets with the mixture, then coat with breadcrumbs.
• Fry the coated tilapia fillets in the hot oil in a single layer, turning carefully after about 3 to 4 minutes. Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes longer, or until cooked through and lightly browned.
