- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs or panko
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 cup vegetable oil for frying

Instructions
- Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels and season with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- Prepare three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder and paprika.
- Dredge each cod piece in the flour, dip into the egg mixture, and coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Press gently to ensure even coating.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 1/4 inch deep.
