Crusted Baked Fish:
Preheat oven to 450F. Place fish into a small oven safe dish. Drizzle fish with a touch of olive oil. Then top the fish with several spoonfuls of flavored breadcrumbs. Top each piece of fish with a few dabs of butter & bake for 7-8 minutes until top is golden brown.
Shallow Fried Fish:
Preheat a cast iron pan or large skillet over medium high heat. Add about ¾ cup of oil to the pan. Take the fish & fist place it in some flour (shake off any excess), then place the fish in an egg wash, then place fish into the seasoned breadcrumbs & press fish into the breadcrumbs so it is evenly coated. Place fish in the hot oil (350F is best) for 3-4 minutes on each side. If the fish browns to quickly turn down the heat so the breading will not burn & the fish will cook evenly.
