Crispy Pan-Fried Sole

My daughter has been wanting to try fish recipes but does not like a real 'fishy' taste. She found this recipe in the April 2005 edition of the All You magazine. It is served with shredded zucchini and sliced new potatoes. ( I was informed to add that too) :)

• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
• 32  ounces sole fillets, lemon may also substitute flounder, red snapper or 32  ounces  striped bass

Directions

1. In a shallow bowl, beat eggs. In another shallow bowl, combine the following four ingredients.
