Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 egg
1 Tbsp water
3/4 tsp tabasco sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 lb fish fillets (flounder, halibut, etc.)
1 c corn flake crumbs
2 Tbsp melted butter

Steps:

1. Combine egg, water, Tabasco sauce and salt, beat until well blended. Dip fish fillets in egg mixture.
2. Coat generously with corn flake crumbs.
3. Place on foil-lined baking sheet; drizzle with melted butter. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-30 minutes.

Tips:

Select the right fish: Choose a firm-fleshed fish that will hold up well to baking, such as salmon, halibut, or cod.
Season the fish generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices to flavor the fish.
Sear the fish before baking: Searing the fish in a hot pan before baking helps to create a crispy crust and lock in the juices.
Bake the fish at a high temperature: Baking the fish at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit or higher) helps to create a crispy crust and cook the fish evenly.
Don't overcook the fish: Fish is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork. Overcooking will make the fish dry and tough.
Serve the fish immediately: Baked fish is best served immediately, while it is still hot and crispy.
