Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 4 filets barramundi about 6 oz each
  • 1 cup pecans finely chopped
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest finely grated
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped, for garnish
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges, for serving

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a shallow dish, combine chopped pecans, panko breadcrumbs, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper.
  • Dredge each barramundi filet in flour, shaking off the excess, then dip in beaten eggs, and finally press into the pecan mixture to coat evenly.
  • Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the fish filets and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
  • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.

Notes

Feel free to substitute barramundi with another firm white fish of your choice.
