fish

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: chicken

Tofu provides a plant-based option, while chicken is often less expensive.

flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Avocado oil is healthier with a higher smoke point.

paprika

🥗Healthier: smoked paprika

💰Cheaper: cayenne pepper

Smoked paprika adds depth without significant cost.

1

Dry the perch fillets with paper towels on both sides to help them crisp up.

2

Lightly beat one egg and add one tablespoon of water to make it runnier for the egg wash.

3

Combine 2/3 cup of Italian breadcrumbs with one teaspoon of paprika and 1.5 pinches of oregano in a bowl.

4

Take a perch fillet, dip it in the flour, and shake off any excess.

5

Dip the floured fillet into the egg wash, ensuring it is well coated, then let it drip.

6

Coat the fillet in the breadcrumb mixture, shaking off any excess, and set it aside.

7

Let the fillets rest for 5 to 10 minutes to help the coating adhere better.

8

Heat grapeseed oil in a large skillet until it reaches about 390 degrees Fahrenheit, enough to cover the bottom of the pan without deep-frying.

9

Carefully add the fillets one at a time to the hot oil, cooking for 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden brown.

10

Remove the fillets from the oil and place them on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

11

Season with salt to taste before serving.
