A delightful recipe for crispy and flavorful fish fillets, perfect for a quick and healthy meal.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined.
Ensure the mixture is smooth for even coating of the fish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, parsley, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the herbs and spices.
Dip each fish fillet into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Pressing the coating firmly ensures it sticks well during baking.
Place the coated fillets on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Check the fish at the minimum time to avoid overcooking.
Serve the crispy herb-crusted fish fillets warm, optionally garnished with lemon wedges.
Lemon wedges add a refreshing tang that complements the herbs.
