Golden Pan-Fried Pickerel
1 Freshwater Fish Pickerel fillet, skin on (at least 6 oz)
2 tbsp flour
1 to 2 tbsp cornmeal, bread or cracker crumbs
1/2 tbsp seasonings of choice, such as garlic, celery or lemon
salt, tarragon, thyme, turmeric, pepper, other herbs/spices
1 egg, beaten
2 tbsp canola or olive oil
Combine cornmeal/crumbs and seasonings.
Rinse pickerel fillet and pat dry. Dredge both sides in flour. Dip pickerel fillet
in beaten egg (one egg is enough for about four fillets). Shake off excess liquid
and then dip fillet lightly in seasoned cornmeal/crumb mixture until coated on
both sides.
Pan fry pickerel fillet in oil over medium high heat, skin side down, for 3
minutes. Turn and fry skin side up for 2 minutes, then turn again and fry skin
side down for 2 more minutes. Total time may vary based on size of fillet. Serve
immediately.
