This is one of my favorite ways to prepare perch. Taco seasoning and cornmeal make the coating zesty and unique.
Ingredients:
1 envelope taco seasoning
1 pound lake perch fillets
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons canola oil
Directions:
1. Place taco seasoning in a large resealable bag; add perch fillets, one at a time, and shake to coat.
2. Place the egg in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl,combine cornmeal and flour. Dip fillets in egg, then coat with cornmeal mixture. Place in a single layer on a plate; refrigerate for 15 minutes.
3. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Fry fillets for 2-3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Yield: 4 servings.
