"This is such a perfect way to fry your fish, an excellent coating, so tasty!!"

 

• Ready In: 5mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 2 cups panko breadcrumbs (coarse Japanese breadcrumbs)
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
• coarse salt & freshly ground black pepper
• vegetable oil (for frying)
• 1 lb sole fillet, cut into 1-by-3-inch pieces

directions

1. Place panko, flour and eggs in three separate shallow dishes; season flour with salt and pepper.
2. Fill a large skillet with enough oil to reach a depth of 1/4-inch; heat over medium-high heat. Working in batches, dredge fish in flour, shaking off excess; dip into egg. Transfer to panko, covering fish completely and pressing lightly to adhere. Arrange fish in the pan in a single layer without any crowding; fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; season with salt. Serve immediately.

Some of the best fish I've ever fixed! I used tilapia and made fish tacos with it. It was amazing! Thanks.

Exremely tasty! I used stripped Bass...it would seem that any firm fish will do. Only had a small fillet to cut up into "fingers" so used one egg and a quarter of the rest of the ingredients. The panko makes the coating so crippy and good. Will make many times.
