This recipe for panko-crusted cod offers much of the pleasures of fried fish with barely any of the hassle or fat and calories. Beaten eggs and well-seasoned bread crumbs create a flavorful crust.

Panko outperforms other breadcrumbs for breading and frying because of how it is made: Rather than being created from baked bread, panko is made from bread that has been cooked via electrical current.
