Tips:

  • Use fresh basa fillets: Fresh basa fillets will give you the best results. If you can't find fresh basa, you can use frozen basa fillets, but be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Season the basa fillets well: Don't be afraid to season the basa fillets liberally with salt, pepper, and other spices. The spices will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Use a light hand when breading the basa fillets: You don't want the breading to be too thick, or it will overpower the fish. Just a light coating of bread crumbs is all you need.
  • Bake the basa fillets at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
  • Serve the basa fillets with your favorite dipping sauce: Tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, or even just a squeeze of lemon juice are all great options.

Crispy baked basa is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The fish is flaky and tender on the inside, with a crispy crust on the outside.
