Healthy Golden Brown Fried Fish Recipes

LOW CARB OVEN FRIED FISH

Steps:

• Prep: Preheat oven to 430°F. Add a dark-colored pan or baking sheet to the oven as it heats up - the pan you use to bake the fish on needs to be hot to melt the butter on!
• Make breading: Mix all ingredients for the breading in a shallow dish.
• Prepare eggs: Add eggs to a SEPARATE shallow dish and beat well.
• Bread fish: Dip fish into breading to lightly coat. THEN coat fish with egg. FINALLY, coat fish with breading again, this time you can really pack on as much as will stick! (Just place breaded fish pieces on a plate until you've breaded them all.)
• Melt butter: VERY CAREFULLY remove the pan from the oven. Add 3 tablespoons of the butter to the pan to melt. Spread all over the pan and put the fish pieces on.
• Bake: Bake the fish for 10 minutes. Flip, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and finish baking for 5-10 minutes or until the coating is crispy and the fish is cooked through.
• Finish: Broil for 2 minutes for a crisper coating. Let the fish rest on the pan for 2-3 minutes minutes after baking, then serve immediately.

Steps:

• Rinse and pat each fillet dry with paper towels. Measure the thickness (thickest place) of your fish fillets.
