Rinse the butterfish fillets under cold water and pat dry. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Prep the Fish

Set up a breading station: Place flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and panko breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder and paprika in a third.

Prepare the Coating

Dredge each fillet in flour, dip in beaten eggs, then coat with panko breadcrumbs. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry fillets for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

Panko Fried Butterfish

Toss the seasoned butterfish lightly in cornstarch. Heat a small amount of oil in a wok or frying pan. Add the fish and fry until golden. Drizzle with soy sauce and sesame oil, then add minced ginger and sliced green onions. Stir-fry for an additional 2 minutes.
