Tilapia Milanese


My poor husband always gets chicken. So when I had him pick what he wanted to make on our Sunday night cooking together, he chose a fish dish! Now... I'm not a big fan of fish, but we did tilapia, which is a very mild, and inexpensive, fish.

No real precise measurement for this dish preparation... but I'll let ya know how we made it!


But, you will need:
flour
eggs
Panko bread crumbs
butter
olive oil
salt & pepper



Just grabbed 4 fillets from the butcher. Set up our dredging station right next to a large nonstick skillet on med high heat. Season EVERYTHING. Kosher salt in each station (flour, egg, and panko) and salt & pepper the fish both sides.

Once the skillet is heated, drop in about 6 Tbsp butter, and add about 3 Tbsp olive oil.

1 - Coat the fish in flour, shake off excess

2 - Dip in egg mixtture

3 - Heavily coat in bread crumbs, both sides.


Place in the skillet, away from you! Let sit for about 3-4 minutes.


Flip, and cook another 3-4 minutes. 

That's it! You're done! 

The crispy coating around this moist flaky fish was delightful! 

(P.S. My husband gets credit for this dish. He basically handled the fish, while I made the broccoli & biscuits.)
