Spicy Fried Pollock

Method

• How to Make Spicy Fried Pollock
• Preheat a suitable amount of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat
• Pat pollock fillets dry with paper towels
• Arrange three shallow bowls: one for flour mixed with cayenne pepper, one for the egg and milk mixture, one for crushed corn flakes combined with parmesan
• In the first bowl, whisk together flour and cayenne pepper
• In the second bowl, beat egg with milk until well combined
• In the third bowl, combine crushed corn flakes and grated parmesan cheese
• Dredge each pollock fillet in the flour-cayenne mixture, ensuring entire surface is coated
• Dip coated fillets into the egg-milk mixture, let excess drip off
• Press fillets gently into the corn flakes-parmesan mixture, ensuring an even, firm coating on all sides
• Carefully transfer coated fillets to a plate and allow coating to set for 3–5 minutes
• Place the fillets in the preheated pan, leaving space between each fillet
• Fry each side for approximately 3–4 minutes until golden brown and cooked through
• Remove the fillets from the pan and let drain briefly on a paper towel-lined plate
• Plate fillets immediately for maximum crispness
• Suggest serving with lemon wedges, a green salad, or light yogurt dip for balance
• Present fillets atop a simple salad or microgreens for a refined touch
• Garnish with fresh herbs or microgreens if available, for additional flavor and visual appeal
