PAN FRIED FISH
Steps:
- Heat a heavy pan over medium high heat.
- Season fish on meat side with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge fish in flour and shake off excess. When pan is good and hot, add Canola oil followed immediately by 1 tablespoon butter. As soon as foaming subsides, place fish in pan with the skin side down. Jiggle pan for the first 10 seconds to keep the fish from sticking. Cook until golden crust forms on meat. Carefully turn fish away from you and again jiggle pan for the first few seconds. Cook until skin turns golden brown. Remove to a warm plate.
- Pour out the cooking fat, add remaining butter and quickly fry the capers. Remove pan from the heat, add lemon juice to pan and swirl. Pour sauce over the fish and serve.
PAN FRIED CATFISH
Steps:
- Rinse the fillets and pat them dry with paper towels. Mix the cornmeal, flour, salt, creole seasoning, paprika, and pepper together in a shallow dish. Pour the milk into a second shallow dish. Dip the fillets into the milk and then into the cornmeal mixture, coating them well and shaking of any excess.
- Heat 1/2 the butter in a large skillet over high heat, and fry 2 of the fillets for about 3 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
- Transfer the fillets to a serving platter and keep warm. Repeat with remaining butter and fillets. Serve immediately, garnished with lemon wedges.
EASY LIGHTLY FRIED FISH - THYME AND SPICES - MEDITERRANEAN
This is just a really simple and easy, and quick, and delicious version of friend fish fillets. Serve it with whatever side you would like - I personally like it with a nice fresh vegetable salad, like a Greek/Aegean/Hortaki. It is parve, so you can go ahead and eat it with dairy.

Steps:
- thaw the fish if frozen - rinse it under water and pat dry if you wish.
- preheat about an inch of oil in a pan.
- cut the fillets into smaller pieces if you want.
- crack the egg into a shallow bowl and beat - add a pinch of salt and pepper.
- prepare the spiced fish fry coating - mix roughly 50:50 flour:spices. I suggest adding a fair amount of salt and pepper, and also chili powder if you like it hot. ANY COMBO OF SPICES WORK, be liberal. MIX UNTIL HOMOGENOUS.
- dip the fish in egg - let the extra egg drip off (tap against the side of bowl).
- coat both sides of the egged up fish in the frying coating.
- carefully (hot oil is dangerous!) fry both sides of the fish in the oil until golden brown on both sides, and the inside of the fish is flaky and white.
- dry on paper towels lined with a bed of thyme.
- garnish with lemon wedges and thyme sprigs (optional).

LIGHT PAN FRIED FISH
This can be baked instead of pan fried, but I found the texture and flavor to be worth the marginal amount of added oil.
