Recipe Notes
Recipe tips:
- Be sure to put your fish in a single layer and cook in small batches. If you overcrowd it, the fish will steam instead of frying.
- The fish should be completely covered with olive oil spray so the panko breadcrumbs or flour mixture will stick.
- If you use frozen fish, wait until they are completely thawed out and patted dry with a paper towel before breading.
- Thinner fish will need to cook for less time. Be sure to adjust or it
