Coat the fish: Pat the fish fillets completely dry. Dip each fillet first into the whisked eggs, letting any excess drip off, then press firmly into the panko mixture, ensuring it's fully coated on all sides. Place the coated fish fillets on the second prepared baking sheet.

Bake: Place both baking sheets in the preheated oven. Bake the sweet potato fries for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Bake the fish for 15-20 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and crisp, and the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time for fish will vary based on thickness.

Serve: Carefully remove both baking sheets from the oven. Serve the oven-baked fish alongside the sweet potato fries. Accompany with tartar sauce and lemon wedges.
