    Everyone loves white fish, with a special mention for pan-fried John Dory. It is a less oily fish than many others, but it still packs plenty of essential nutrients. With John Dory fish, it’s possible to get a light tasting fish if you don’t like the taste of an overly fishy tasting fish.

    Ingredients

    • 2 large eggs
    • 3/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 3 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs made from crustless Italian bread
    • 4 skinless John Dory fillets, about 6oz each
    • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
    • Lemon wedges, to serve

    Method

    • Lightly beat the eggs in a shallow bowl. Season with salt and ground black pepper, and set aside.
    • Pour the flour into a second shallow bowl. Season with salt and ground black pepper, and set aside.
    • Pour the breadcrumbs into a third shallow bowl. Season with salt and ground black pepper, and set aside.
    • Dip each fish fillet into the flour, tapping off the excess, then egg, then bread.
    • Set the breaded fillets in a single layer on one of 3 rimmed baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining fillets. Sprinkle with the breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to adhere.
    • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish, in 2 batches if necessary, and cook, turning once, for about 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
    • Serving Suggestions: Serve immediately, with fried eschalots, micro cress and lemon wedges.
