Fish Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Fish
Rinse the white fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place them in a shallow dish.

Prepare the Breading Stations
In three separate shallow dishes, set up your breading stations: one with all-purpose flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of bread crumbs, garlic powder, paprika, and dried parsley.

Bread the Fish
Take one marinated fish fillet, dredge it in the flour, making sure to coat it evenly. Shake off any excess flour. Dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess egg to drip off, and finally coat it thoroughly in the bread crumb mixture. Repeat for all fillets.
Cooking
- 5
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers but is not smoking.
- 6
Fry the Fish
Carefully place the breaded fish fillets into the hot oil, cooking them for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches if necessary.
- 7
Drain and Serve
Once cooked, transfer the fish fillets to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with lemon wedges and your favorite dipping sauce.
