Flaky, fresh, fish is always tasty. After bringing home boxes of halibut and cod from Alaska, I have been searching for the best recipes. The Pioneer Woman had this recipe in her latest recipe book. It will work with any fish you serve.
Ingredients; ¾ cup of Panko, ½ cup of sliced almonds, 3 tsp. melted butter, 2 Tbsp. chopped parsley, Salt and pepper/ or some Old Bay seasoning, 1/3 cup of all purpose flour, 6 six ounce filets, ½ cup of mayonnaise and the juice of one lemon. You can also add a cup of grated Parmesan cheese over top the Panko mixture.
Directions; Set the oven at 375 degrees. Use a small bowl to mix the Panko and almonds. Drizzle the melted butter and toss together. Add the parsley, salt and pepper and mix in.
Put the flour in a small bowl and add a pinch of salt and pepper and mix together. Use this to dredge the portion sized fish filets. Spread the coated filets onto a baking dish or tray. Smear Mayonnaise onto each filet. Sprinkle the Panko mixture over top the filets. Bake until the crumbs are golden brown. Do not overcook. 16-18 minutes is plenty of time. Thicker filets take longer. Squeeze lemon juice over the top to finish.
This recipe works well in a Dutch Oven, when camping. Fresh filets are amazing using this recipe. I even tried it using foil packs over a fire’s coals. They turned out wonderful with no leftovers.
Add your favorite sides and enjoy!
