This recipe calls for a bake/fry method that I prefer to stovetop frying. The fish is less likely to dry out and I don’t have to deal with the inevitable splashes that come from frying food in a pan.

Ingredients
- 2 thick cod, tilapia, or sole filets (6 to 8 ounces each), or other white fish
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup breadcrumbs
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- Lemon wedges for garnish
Instructions
-
Pour the milk into a bowl. Add the fish and coat each piece well.
-
Place the breadcrumbs in another bowl. Add the fish and roll in the crumbs until completely coated.
-
Add the oil to the bottom of a casserole dish or baking pan, and add the fish. Bake in a preheated 325°F oven for 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, turn the fish over with a spatula, then return to the oven. Bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
-
Serve with lemon wedges.
