Crispy Fish with Lemon-Dill Sauce

April 28, 2015 By Sarah 'n Spice 17 Comments

Crispy Fish with Lemon-Dill Sauce

Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! I spent most of mine reading through a bunch of cookbooks and playing with my new Apple Watch! I’m completely obsessed! 😀

We’re not big fish eaters in our house, but once in a while we find a recipe we really enjoy. Our favorite types of fish are Sole and Orange Roughy. Trader Joe’s always has the best selection of wild caught frozen fish. I grabbed a pound of the Sole and started looking for some recipes. I knew I wanted baked fish, but I wanted it crispy. This one fit the bill perfectly. Seasoned panko is the magic ingredient, making this fish nice and crispy while broiling in the oven. Serve with a side of homemade tartar sauce and a few lemon wedges and a delicious dinner awaits you.

You can use this recipe with any white fish you like. We loved this dish, and know you will too!

Crispy Fish with Lemon-Dill Sauce

Start off by combining breadcrumbs, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder in a shallow dish.

Place on a broiler pan and broil on high for 4 minutes on each side or until the fish is nice and flaky.

While that’s cooking, we’re going to whip up a quick tartar sauce. Take 1-2 pickle spears and chop them up finely.

Once the fish has finished baking, place on a plate with a couple of lemon wedges and a side of the lemon-dill sauce. Don’t forget to squeeze a little lemon right over the fillet before eating.

Enjoy!

    I was actually planning on preparing fish this weekend, but didn’t want to use my old recipes. I must try out this recipe. And I just love the dill sauce. It looks amazing. Thanks of this, I can’t wait to make it this weekend. I hope to see you at my new blog next week.
