Herb-crumbed fish fillets are a delightful and flavorful way to enjoy your favorite white fish. This recipe combines fresh herbs with a crispy breadcrumb and parmesan cheese coating, creating a perfect balance of textures and tastes. It’s a quick and easy dish that will please even the pickiest eaters, making it a great option for a weekday dinner or a special occasion.
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped dill, and chopped chives. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly to ensure the herbs and cheese are evenly distributed throughout the bread crumbs.
Pat the white fish fillets dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture. This will help the crumb mixture adhere better to the fish.
Press each fish fillet into the herb-crumb mixture, ensuring that both sides are evenly coated. Gently shake off any excess crumbs.
In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Allow the butter to melt completely and start to bubble, which will help give the fish a nice golden crust.
Place the crumb-coated fish fillets in the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the crumbs turn golden brown. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
Once the fish fillets are browned on both sides, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for a minute. Serve hot with lemon wedges, a side of your favorite vegetables, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh herbs to maximize the flavor. Dried herbs can be used in a pinch, but the taste won’t be as vibrant.
- Make sure the fish fillets are of an even thickness to ensure they cook evenly.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the breadcrumb mixture.
- Serve the fish fillets with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for added brightness and acidity.
- Pair the dish with a light salad or steamed vegetables to create a balanced meal.
Herb-crumbed fish fillets are not only delicious but also a nutritious option for any meal. The crispy herb coating adds a delightful texture and enhances the flavor of the white fish. With this easy-to-follow recipe, you can quickly prepare a dish that looks and tastes like it came from a fancy restaurant. Enjoy your cooking experience and the delightful meal that comes from it!
