How To Fry A Fish




Four 6-8 oz fish fillets (red snapper, tilapia, pollock... it's all good.)
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup flour
1/3 cup grated parmigiano reggiano cheese
juice and grated peel of 1 lemon

In skillet, heat a little olive oil until hot, over medium-high heat.

Mix cornmeal, flour, cheese, and lemon peel on a plate. Season fish with salt and pepper, then dredge in cornmeal mixture, pressing to coat fish evenly. Fry in the skillet, turning once, until golden-brown (about 7 minutes total.)

Top with drizzle of lemon juice and serve hot.
