Disclosure: I was compensated by Omaha Steaks for this post but all opinions expressed here are my own.
I’ve got a brand new Omaha Steaks recipe up today perfect for Lent or middle of the week fast dinners: Lemon Panko Crusted Fish. This is also a great recipe for anyone try to eat lighter or dieting for any reason, especially New Year’s resolutions.
LEMON PANKO CRUSTED FISH
This recipe has been a fave of mine (along with my orange glazed salmon recipe if you missed it) for a while because of its ease and convenience. Because I love eating lighter during the week, I rely on it to keep me accountable and healthy as opposed to my sugar filled fat fried weekend nights.
BREADED FISH RECIPE
Fish can be cooked very quickly and is so adaptable. You can basically pair it with anything and make it taste divine, especially when it’s the Ocean Bounty from Omaha Steaks. You can use cod, mahi mahi or salmon for this breaded fish recipe. I really love coating fish in panko because that crunch is just outstanding, and when you add lemon zest, watch out! You have quite a remarkable dish on your hands with little effort.
Lemon Panko Crusted Fish is here, ready for you to make this week. So don’t hesitate! Head over to the Omaha Steaks’ blog Steakbyes and get your fish on!

Fresh and delicious! Can’t wait to try!
So smart to add lemon zest to the panko! What a brightly flavored dish!
Sounds amazing! I usually turn to chicken but I need more fish in my life!
I love the looks of this fish. Crispy fish—panko—lemon. What a wonderful dish to serve for spring. A nice crisp
white wine. Aaaaah.
I don’t normally talk about ME, but please make note of the slight name change from Wild Goose Tea. New web design too—whoopee and adding new features along the line.
Love the looks of this fish recipe, Jocelyn! I can’t handle ‘fishy fish’, and I can tell there’s no way these are going to be too fishy with the Panko and the lemon…looks delicious!
Yummmm! Panko bread crumbs is my favorite and it does work well with fish. Checking out the recipe because I need to make this soon.
Panko on fish is the best! You get the whole fried crunchy feeling without the health problems. I’m a fan of this one!
Oh man, I love Panko! Especially with fish. You can’t beat the crunch! Looks amazing!
I will try this recipe with some variation of fish or even chicken. Pinning this and have a great weekend.
This is a delicious looking meal!!!
