1
Prepare the Haddock
Rinse the haddock fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
2
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate shallow dishes, place the flour mixed with salt and pepper in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs in the third.

3
Bread the Haddock
Coat each fillet in flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
4
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
5
Fry the Haddock
Carefully place the breaded haddock fillets in the hot oil, cooking for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the skillet; cook in batches if necessary.
6
Drain the Fried Fish
Once cooked, remove the fillets from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
