Ingredients

  • cooking spray

  • 6 tilapia fillets

  • 1 cup garlic- and herb-seasoned bread crumbs

  • 2 teaspoons garlic and herb seasoning (such as McCormick®)

  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • 1 large egg

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a shallow baking dish with cooking spray. Pat fish fillets dry.

  2. Mix bread crumbs, seasoning, salt, and cayenne pepper together in a zip-top bag. Seal the bag and toss ingredients together in the sealed bag until thoroughly mixed.

  3. Mix milk and egg together in a bowl. Place fillets, 1 at a time, into egg mixture, shaking off excess. Place into the zip-top bag, seal, and shake to coat evenly. Transfer fillets to the prepared baking dish.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until easily flaked with a fork, about 15 minutes. Turn on the oven's broiler and continue to cook for until edges are crisp, about 5 minutes more.

Cook's Note:

You can alter the seasoning to your liking.
