Baked Maggie Fish with Cornmeal Crust
This dish is inspired by the comforting flavors of Maggie noodles and combines them beautifully with a crispy cornmeal crust. The result is a tender, flavorful fish that’s perfect for a weeknight dinner.
Ingredients
- 4 fish fillets (such as tilapia, cod, or any firm white fish)
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons Maggie seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing
Instructions
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with cooking spray or olive oil.
Prepare the Coating: In a shallow dish, mix together the cornmeal, Maggie seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. This will create a flavorful coating for your fish.
Prepare the Fish: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and lemon juice until frothy. Dip each fish fillet into the egg mixture, ensuring it's coated well. Then, dredge each fillet into the cornmeal mixture, pressing gently to ensure it's evenly coated.
Bake the Fish: Place the coated fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray or drizzle a little olive oil over them. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy.
Serve and Enjoy: Remove the fish from the oven, and let it cool for a minute. Serve with your favorite sides — a fresh salad or steamed vegetables elevate the dish perfectly!
Flavor Profile Explanation
The Maggie seasoning brings a rich umami flavor to the fish, while the cornmeal provides a satisfying crunch that contrasts with the tender fish. The addition of lemon juice brightens the dish and enhances the taste.
