Ingredients
Scale
- 4 white fish fillets (cod, tilapia, or haddock)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
- Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine grated Parmesan, panko breadcrumbs, olive oil, garlic powder, and paprika. Stir until evenly coated.
- Place the fillets on the baking sheet and spoon the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of each piece. Press it down lightly to help it stick.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The topping should be golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.
Notes
For extra crunch, broil the fish for the last 1-2 minutes of baking.
