Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 15x10x1-inch baking pan with cooking spray.

In shallow dish, mix Bisquick mix, salt, paprika, chile powder and lemon-pepper seasoning. In another shallow dish, place evaporated milk. Dip fillets in milk, then coat with seasoned Bisquick mixture (discard any remaining mixture). Place fillets in baking dish. Spray tops of fillets with cooking spray to moisten.
