Breaded Talapia

  • 15 mins
  • 25 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 pounds tilapia fillets, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Preparation

Step 1

Beat the egg and soy sauce together in a bowl.

Gently press the tilapia pieces into the flour to coat; shake off the excess flour. Dip each flour-coated piece into the beaten egg mixture and then press into bread crumbs & cornmeal. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Place the breaded tilapia onto a plate while breading the rest; do not stack.

Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the breaded tilapia in the vegetable oil until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side.
