Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 15m

Yield 1 fillet, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cajun seasoning or 1 teaspoon creole seasoning
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
20 ounces skinless tilapia fillets or 20 ounces catfish fillets
2 teaspoons olive oil
lemon wedge

Steps:

  • Mix the flour, seasoning, salt and pepper on a sheet of wax paper. Line a large baking sheet or tray with wax paper.
  • Working with one fillet at a time, place it skin side down in the flour mixture to coat one side only; press the top so that the mixture adheres. Shake off the excess and place each fillet, floured side up, on the prepared baking sheet. Discard any remaining flour mixture.
  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add fillets, floured side down. Reduce the heat to medium; cover and cook just until the fillets are opaque in the center, about 4-6 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Use a mandoline slicer to get evenly sliced cucumbers.
  • Soak the cucumber slices in ice water for at least 30 minutes before frying. This will help to remove some of the bitterness.
  • Use a light coating of flour on the cucumber slices before frying. This will help them to brown evenly.
  • Fry the cucumber slices in a single layer in a large skillet. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the cucumbers will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the cucumber slices over medium heat until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the fried cucumbers immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Fried cucumbers are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a great way to use up extra cucumbers, and they are also a healthy and refreshing snack. If you are looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy cucumbers, give this recipe a try.
