Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

Dredge each fish fillet in flour, shaking off excess.

Dip the floured fillet into the beaten eggs, coating it completely.

Press the egg-coated fillet into the breadcrumbs until well-coated.

Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat until melted and bubbling.

Place the breaded fish fillets in the skillet without overcrowding.

Cook the fillets for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

Remove the fish from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

Serve the fish with lemon wedges, chopped parsley, and a side of boiled potatoes and green beans.
