Yummy Crispy Baked Fish

Recipe #150987 | 15 min | 15 min prep | add private note

Easy and healthier way to get crispy tasty fish. I have used mostly mild whitefish like tilapia with great results. Don't be scared by the number of ingredients—it is mostly spices and herbs. Please adjust the spices, especially salt, to your taste. I have tried to post a balanced blend here but feel free to adjust mild, spicy, lower sodium etc...

Excellent! My tilapia took longer than 8 min, but they were quite large. They were very crispy and tasty.

    Wonderful! I love recipes with no waste, and the breading amount is RIGHT ON! I did have 1 1/3 pounds tilapia, 6 filets. I had 1 % milk, and it never thickened up. Next time I might just buy 1% buttermilk or try adding a touch more vinegar to curdle it a bit better, or add some sour cream. The flavor was mild, the filets were crispy, and even the kids loved it! My only change to the recipe was to use about 1/4 teaspoon creole seasoning in place of the 1/2 teaspoon cayenne, because I didn't have any. And I chose honey mustard as the mustard. This will be made over and over again! Thanks for posting!

    Absolute outstanding. Within two days I have made it twice. I'm so glad to have made this easy to make, healthy and so deeeelish fish recipe. I have used catfish and tilapia and it was great. The breading is very easy to made and because only "dry" ingredients are used you can make in advance. I love the taste of mustard and the milk mixture gives just the right amount of mustard flavour without overpowering the other flavours. Because I like it spicy, I have added a little more of cayenne pepper and it was fantastic. Love the taste of the breading and the texture of it. In opposite to pan seared fish it remains dry and is not soaked with oil. You can use any of your favorite dips with this fish too, try you favorite salsa or dip. Or maybe try a little dijon mustard with the fish to support this flavour. The fish is easy to make and it really needs not more than 4 minutes from each side. The second time I have made this recipe I cut the fillet into smaller pieces to have more of the breading and the outcome was a fantastic finger food. I tried the leftovers cold and still was so good that I have had it with mustard and salad as a sandwich. Thank you so much Hope for this wonderful recipe. It opens so many possibilities of variations that 5 stars are sure not enough. I will make it now very often.

    Delicious. I used skim milk so my coating was not quite as thick as intended. Nonetheless, it was certainly enough to get the cornmeal to adhere in a nice crispy crust. One could add a tablespoon of non-fat plain yogurt if you wanted it thicker. What really makes this stand out is the wonderful blend of spices in the coating. Well balanced and flavorful - really brought my plain piece of flounder to life. Thank's Mama.
