4 servings

30 minutes

Breaded hake fillet is a simple yet elegant dish consisting of juicy fish fillet covered with a crispy golden crust. Hake is a fish with a delicate, mild flavor that pairs wonderfully with spicy breading and light saltiness. This cooking method originated to give the fish an appetizing texture while preserving its juiciness. The dish is perfect for a quick dinner and can be served with vegetables, fresh salads, or light sauces. The breading gives the fish a special character—it becomes crispy on the outside but remains soft on the inside. This dish is versatile: it can be prepared for family dinners or festive tables and also used as a filling for fish burgers.
