Getting a fiddling help from my husband with dinner normally involves manning the grill, but recently John ’ s become quite adept at preparing tilapia in the oven .
In fact, this oven baked fish recipe has become one of his judge and true recipes .
We even use this same recipe and method acting for oven fried pisces and chips served with batch of malt vinegar rather of the dragon sauce. Either way, it ’ mho makes a delightful weeknight dinner !

Crispy Oven-Fried Fish Filets
I ’ ve started experimenting with making my own tatar sauce. With alone two people in our house, a jar in our electric refrigerator never gets used up before the passing date. By making my own, I can mix up fair enough for one meal and avoid the waste .
You ’ ve probably noticed that I ’ ve a fan of Trader Joe ’ sulfur hale ingrain Dijon mustard, so it shouldn ’ thymine be a big surprise to learn that I sneaked a teaspoon of the stuff into my tatar sauce !
I like to improvise when it comes to fudge, which basically means that I ’ m the fagot of substituting ingredients to avoid making another trip to the grocery ! sometimes — like with this recipe — I discover a delicious combination .
Starting with a mayonnaise base, I add a little odoriferous pickle gusto, newly lemon juice, a splash of hot sauce, and a teaspoon of Trader Joe ’ s Dijon Mustard. so simple and then delectable !
Ingredients for Dijon Tartar Sauce: mayo, pickle relish, fresh lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and hot sauce.
Tips for making oven fried fish extra crispy with a three-step dredging process:
- John likes to cut each fish filet into three or four smaller pieces instead of keeping them whole. I think that’s because he gets more crispy breading that way!
- Set up a dredging station with three shallow bowls — one for flour, one for the beaten egg wash, and one for panko bread crumbs.
- Dredge each piece of fish in flour, shaking off the excess.
- Next, dip in the egg wash, then dredge in Panko bread crumbs until completely coated.
- Place the fish on a parchment-lined baking sheet (for easier clean up later!).
- Drizzle the breaded fish with a little olive oil and bake.

- 4 mild fish filets, like tilapia

- Cut filets into small pieces, if desired.
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt and pepper. In two more separate shallow dishes, place the beaten eggs and the panko bread crumbs.
