• Ready In: 40 mins
• Serves: 12
• Yields: 1 pound

Ingredients

• 1  cup  unseasoned breadcrumbs
• 2  teaspoons seasoning salt
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons  Old Bay Seasoning
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons onion powder
• 1  teaspoon garlic powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1⁄2 cup flour (approximately 1/2 C per pound of fish)

• Egg Wash

• 2  eggs
• 1⁄8 cup milk

• Fish

• 1  lb  fish, of your choice cut into 1/4-inch - 1/2-inch thick sections. Smaller pieces are easier to handle

Directions

1. Place flour and fish pieces in a plastic bag and shake to coat well. Remove fish and place on a plate. Discard excess flour.
2. Place the first six ingredients in the empty plastic bag and shake to mix.
3. Beat eggs and milk together in a bowl.
4. Dip flour-coated fish pieces in egg wash, then place into the bread crumb mixture in the bag and shake to coat well. It's easiest to do one at a time.
5. Fish can either be baked in the oven (425 degrees for approximately 5 to 10 minutes depending on the type and thickness of fish) or pan-fried approximately 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side.
