Susan's Crispy Fish Fillets

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup flour
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (I use Garli Garni)
• 1 1/2 cups panko
• 1 1/2 lbs flounder fillets (or any mild white fish, thin!)
• 1/4 cup olive oil (to fry in, however, we use less)
• 2 lemons (for squeezing over fish when serving)

Directions

1. 1

   Put flour in a bowl.

2. 2

   In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg, mustard and salt.

3. 3

   Place panko crumbs in yet another bowl and add in garlic and pepper.

4. 4

   Dust fillets with flour, then dip in egg/mustard mixture and then press into panko.

5. 5

   Heat enough oil to fry one fillet in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry each fillet individually and put a small amount of oil in before each fillet rather than the full 1/4 cup all at once since it seems doing it this way causes me to use WAY more oil than needed.

6. 6

   Fry fish fillets in oil for 3 to 4 minutes per side or until golden brown.

7. 7

   Serve with fresh squeezed lemons.
