Categories     dinner, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 skinless, boneless fish fillets, (weakfish, red snapper, blackfish or any other nonoily fish)
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon milk
Salt to taste, if desired

  • Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper before dredging them in the flour mixture. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Be sure to coat the fish fillets evenly with the flour mixture. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan and will also help to create a crispy crust.
  • Use enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking and will also help to create a crispy crust.
  • Cook the fish fillets over medium heat. This will help to prevent the fish from cooking too quickly and will also help to create a crispy crust.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when cooking the fish fillets. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly.
