Ingredients

3 Eggs

Directions

1
Soak fish fillets in a pan of milk for at least 30 minutes, or overnight in the refrigerator for best results.
2
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and a splash of milk.
3
In a separate large bowl or plate, combine the Golden Dipt breading mix dry with 4 cups of bread crumbs.
4
Add garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the breadcrumb mixture to taste, stirring to distribute evenly.
5
Pour about 3/4 inch of vegetable oil into a large frying pan and heat over medium-high heat.
6
Test the oil by carefully splashing a drop of water into it; it should sizzle vigorously when ready.
7
Remove fish fillets from the milk and pat them dry with paper towels.
8
Dip each fillet into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.
9
Press the egg-coated fillets into the breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides thoroughly.
10
Place the coated fillets into the hot oil and fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
11
Remove fish from the pan and drain on paper towels before serving.

Note

The milk soak is crucial for tenderizing the fish and neutralizing strong flavors. For a milder taste, soak for a shorter time; for maximum tenderness, soak overnight.

Do not add liquid to the Golden Dipt mix as per the box instructions; instead, mix it dry with the breadcrumbs as directed in this recipe for the proper texture.

Adjust the amount of garlic powder to your preference. Some cooks prefer a heavier hand with the garlic for a more robust flavor.

Use white fish fillets such as perch, walleye, pike, cod, or haddock for best results.

Serve immediately while hot and crispy. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh parsley if desired.
