Susan's Crispy Fish Fillets
Ready In: 20 mins
Serves: 4
Yields: 4
Ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup flour
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
- 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder (I use Garli Garni)
- 1 1⁄2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 1 1⁄2 lbs flounder fillets (or any mild white fish, thin!)
- 1⁄4 cup olive oil (to fry in, however, we use less)
- 2 lemons (for squeezing over fish when serving)
Directions
- Put flour in a bowl.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg, mustard and salt.
- Place panko crumbs in yet another bowl and add in garlic and pepper.
- Dust fillets with flour, then dip in egg/mustard mixture and then press into panko.
- Heat enough oil to fry one fillet in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry each fillet individually and put a small amount of oil in before each fillet rather than the full 1/4 cup all at once since it seems doing it this way causes me to use WAY more oil than needed.
- Fry fish fillets in oil for 3 to 4 minutes per side or until golden brown.
- Serve with fresh squeezed lemons.
