Instructions

Now that you have gathered your ingredients, follow these simple steps to create perfectly breaded and grilled fish that will impress your family and friends.

  1. Prepare the Breading Station: Set up three shallow bowls. In the first, place the flour seasoned with salt, pepper, and paprika. In the second bowl, beat the egg with lemon juice. In the third bowl, add the breadcrumbs.
  2. Coat the Fish: Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel. Dredge each fillet in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the egg mixture, then coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs.
  3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly grease grates with cooking spray or brush with olive oil.
  4. Grill the Fish: Place breaded fish fillets on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F).
  5. Serve: Remove from grill and let rest for a minute before serving. Enjoy your delicious breaded grilled fish with a side of lemon wedges or your favorite dipping sauce!
