Ingredients

    1/2 cup (125 mL) all-purpose_flour
    1/4 cup (50 mL) milk
    2 eggs
    1 cup (250 mL) cornmeal
    2 tsp (10 mL) dried dillweed

    1-1/2 lb (750 g) pickerel fillets, skinned
    1 tbsp (15 mL) butter
    1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable_oil

Preparation

Place flour in shallow bowl. In separate shallow bowl, whisk milk with eggs. In third bowl, combine cornmeal, dillweed, salt and pepper. Dip fillets, 1 at a time, into flour, shaking off excess; dip into egg mixture then cornmeal mixture, patting to coat both sides evenly.

In skillet, heat butter and oil over medium-high heat; cook fillets, turning once, until fish is opaque and flakes easily when tested, about 8 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over top.

Substitution: Use cod, haddock or Boston bluefish instead of the pickerel.
