- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs

- Combine the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper in the first bowl.
- Whisk the eggs in the second bowl until blended.
- Dredge each white fish loin in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess.
