Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

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

Steps:

Tips:

  • When selecting tilapia fillets, look for ones that are firm and have a light pink color. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy smell.
  • Before breading and frying the tilapia, pat it dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help the breading adhere better to the fish.
  • To make the breading extra crispy, double-coat the tilapia fillets. First, dip them in the egg wash, then coat them in the breadcrumb mixture. Then, dip them in the egg wash again and coat them in the breadcrumb mixture a second time.
  • Be sure to fry the tilapia fillets in hot oil. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Serve the tilapia fillets immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, and lemon-butter sauce.

Conclusion:

Gatorbeks Breaded and Fried Tilapia is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The tilapia fillets are coated in a flavorful breading and fried until golden brown. They are then served with a dipping sauce of your choice. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
