Panko Crusted Tilapia Sticks Recipes

PANKO-CRUSTED TILAPIA STICKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Slice tilapia filets into 1-inch wide x 3-inch long "sticks".
• Into a shallow, wide bowl, place panko, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Stir until thoroughly combined.
• In another shallow bowl, whisk egg. Then whisk in milk, ketchup, salt and pepper.
• Lightly coat a medium-sized baking pan with cooking spray.
• Dredge tilapia "sticks" in egg mixture, gently shake off excess liquid and drop into panko mixture. Pat mixture onto all sides of the fish and gently place onto baking pan, handling carefully as not to loose the coating.
• Bake for 5 minutes, rotate the baking pan (do not turn the fish sticks themselves) and return to the oven for another 2-3 minutes.
• Allow to cool slightly, serve and enjoy!

PANKO CRUSTED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375%. Spray a baking pan lightly with cooking oil.
• In a shallow dish, combine melted margarine, garlic powder, and lemon juice. In a separate shallow dish, combine panko and Old Bay seasoning.
• Dip each filet in butter mixture, then roll well in the panko mixture. Place filets in a single layer onto prepared pan.
• Press any remaining panko mixture onto tops of filets.
• Bake 12-14 minutes, until flaky. Serve with lemon wedges.

PANKO-CRUSTED TILAPIA

Steps:

• 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.

PANKO-CRUSTED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• In a shallow bowl, mix panko, garlic, thyme, cayenne, and a generous pinch of both salt and pepper. Add the olive oil to panko mixture, mixing with fingers so that breadcrumbs are evenly coated. Set aside.
• Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Place tilapia fillets on baking sheet at least 1 inch apart. Spread 1/2 tsp dijon mustard (or more to taste) evenly on each fillet. Press panko mixture on top of the mustard, splitting the panko evenly among the four fillets.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, until fish is cooked through and will flake with a fork.
