Fish Fillets

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading

    In a shallow dish, combine flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth.

  3. 3

    Coat the Fish

    Dip each fish fillet first into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then coat in the cornmeal mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  5. 5

    Fry the Fish

    Carefully add the coated fish fillets to the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fish from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot.
