Ingredients
-
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
-
3 large eggs, beaten
-
1 ½ cups panko bread crumbs
-
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
-
1 lime, zested
-
1 pinch garlic powder, or more to taste
-
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or more to taste
-
salt and ground black pepper to taste
-
4 tilapia fillets
-
canola oil, or more as needed
Directions
-
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.
Recipe Tip
You can use parsley instead of cilantro if preferred.
