A delightful twist on crispy fish strips, these tilapia fingers are easy to prepare and packed with flavor.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a crispy crust.
Season the tilapia fillets with salt and lemon pepper.
Let the seasoning sit for a few minutes to enhance the flavor.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the juice of half a lemon.
Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best taste.
Place the flour, mayonnaise mixture, and panko breadcrumbs on separate plates.
Organize the plates in a row for an efficient breading process.
Dredge each tilapia fillet in flour, then coat it with the mayonnaise mixture, and finally press it into the panko breadcrumbs.
Press the breadcrumbs firmly onto the fish to ensure they stick well.
Place the breaded fillets on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
Use parchment paper on the baking sheet for easier cleanup.
Bake the fillets for 8 minutes, then broil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Keep an eye on the fish while broiling to prevent burning.
Serve the tilapia fingers with lemon wedges and your favorite dipping sauce.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a touch of color and flavor.
