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!

Such a great and easy receipe; I’ve made it 3 times this week. I used frozen cod and cut the recipe in half as I was making it for myself. It’s a great staple and I can change up the sides each time and it’s likes a whole new dish. Will be making so much more from this site- so happy I found it.
Made this tonight with locally caught Mahi. So delicious thanks for sharing this recipe.
I liked this so much I made copies for my friends at work; used fresh grouper as the fish. Forgot to spray the parchment paper, but that didn’t seem to make a difference. I’m a fan of Montreal Steak seasoning and switched that out for the salt and pepper.
Will definitely make again.
Thank you so much Cathy! Can you do me a favor and point them to my website instead to get the recipe? It helps me out and spreads the word about my site so I can continue to share recipes. I appreciate the love.
This was delicious! I did change the recipe up a bit though. I added dried parsley and paprika to the Panko mixture. I also added a smidge of butter to the top of the fish before putting it in the oven. I also put it on the broiler setting for the last few moments. I am a picky fish eater and I am happy to say I actually had seconds! And my hubby and kids didn’t need any sauce!
So glad you enjoyed it!
My second time making this. It’s a hit. Thank you!!!
Hooray I’m so so glad!
