YUMMY CRISPY BAKED FISH
Easy and healthier way to get crispy tasty fish. NOTE: you MUST use the right pan! Please be sure to use a broiler pan so the breading gets hot air on the bottom too and isn't soggy on the bottom when you go to turn it. OR use a cooling rack on a cookie sheet. Do not use a pan with sides as that will steam the fish, not make it crispy. I have never had the breading fall off using the correct methods. If you don't care for cornmeal use panko. I have used mostly mild whitefish like catfish or tilapia with great results. Don't be scared by the number of ingredients-it is mostly spices and herbs. Please adjust the spices, especially salt, to your taste. I have tried to post a balanced blend here but feel free to adjust mild, spicy, lower sodium etc...

Steps:
- Mix milk, vinegar and mustard and let set for 15 minutes. This will make a mustardy, buttermilky dressing to coat the fish.
- In a separate bowl mix cornmeal or panko with all the seasonings.
- Dip fish fillets in the milk mixture and then in the dry mixture.
- Spray broiling pan with cooking spray or brush with a little olive oil.
- Place fillets on prepared pan and place pan under broiler 4 inches from heat.
- Broil for 4 minutes per side or until fish flakes easily with a fork. (Thicker filets will take longer. This timing is for tilapia)
- Serve with lemon wedges if desired.
Tips:
- Choose a firm-fleshed fish like cod, haddock, or tilapia for best results.
- Pat the fish dry before coating it in the breadcrumb mixture to help the coating adhere.
- Use a light touch when coating the fish in the breadcrumb mixture to prevent the coating from becoming too thick.
- Bake the fish at a high temperature to get a crispy coating and tender fish.
- Serve the fish immediately with tartar sauce and lemon wedges.
Conclusion:
This crispy baked fish with tartar sauce is a delicious and easy weeknight meal. The fish is coated in a flavorful breadcrumb mixture and baked until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The tartar sauce is a classic accompaniment that adds a creamy and tangy flavor to the fish. This dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
