fried rockfish fillet

[William Novotny]

Whttp://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/ee392/williamnovotny/20130905_123438.jpgell I thought I'd share a little recipe action with you guys. It took my awhile to get this right but now my pan fried filets come out perfectly every time.

Start off with freshly caught fish of your choice. I like rockfish or sculpin but any mild flavored white fish will do

Fillet fish, rinse with fresh water and pat dry with paper towel, place aside.

In a bowl beat 1 egg for every pound of fillet. Set aside

For a nice crispy breading I like to use cornbread stuffing mix, crushed down to a nice fine consistency. Spread on a plate and set aside

Then set up your station with your fish, a bowl of flour, your egg and stuffing crumbs

Salt and pepper fish to taste, dredge in flower, dip fillet in egg and completely coat in crumbs

http://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/ee392/williamnovotny/20130905_123942.jpg

Use about 2 tbsp of goid olive oil in a non stick pan. Too much oil and you get mushy breading. Heat on high then just before placing fish in the pan reduce heat to med/med high.

Cook on one side for approximately 3min give or take for size/thickness of fillet.

http://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/ee392/williamnovotny/20130905_124109.jpg

Flip fillet and finish off by browning the opposite side.

Fillet should turn out firm and crisp with an opaque center

I like to drizzle a bit of seasoned rice vinegar to taste.

Thanks I don't know why this ended up in the buy sell trade section. I wrote it is the general discusion board. If an admin can move it plz do. Thanks

[makobob]

Nice, so what you trading for the eats? Still no blood on those decks!

[dorado50]

No offense but that way of preparing fish is very "simple" and ordinary! Plus you burnt the bread crumbs:eek:. Might of tasted good but did not look so good.:D

Have you ever stopped and thought to yourself...."Hey! Today, I will not be a dick"

When I saw you had replied, I already knew you were going to have something negative and criticizing to say before I even read your post. You're always a debby downer, and have some .02 to put in that no one cares to hear. Just keep it to yourself and let people do their thing. You don't need to always put other people down. You might argue it's constructive criticism, but it's not. You're just being an ass.

Nice photo layout, that's putting rockfish to good use.

We love rockfish. Our last trip to LJ wasn't giving up any of the big name fish, but we made the most of it bringing home 7 rockfish and a sculpin. Ate the 2 reds that night-Tempura style in a wok. Delicious.

Your pics made me drool. I saw your haul on 9/1, nicely done.

[William Novotny]

[OutdoorAdvntr]

[makobob]

Belsomic works well too, for us old guys with bad taste buds.

[outdoorzen]

I appreciate the input. Thanks Will!

[flemdogg]

Burnt or not who cares! Probablly tasted awesome along with a cold one. Thanks for sharing.

[Old Man in the Sea]

How much are the fish tacos??

[makoslayer]

looks delicious!!! My father in law made some bugs and rockfish and turf on the bbq. marinaded the rocks in italian dressing. came out delicious!

[TCS]

Thanks for the write up. I'll try this next time. I usually just cook em in garlic butter over low heat.


The breadcrumb thing was a joke. No need to get your knickers in a knot.

Ummmm, I think its pretty clear my knickers stay unknotted. I could care less about other people's negative vibes. Im just doing what I love and sharing my experiences with others. And for the record, I don't consider a little charring "burnt" that's how my grandma's Southern style breaded pork chops came out and that's how I prefer anything pan fried. You can cook yours to your own liking.

:you_rock: Looks amazing. I'll bring the wine... a nice Chard maybe...

yum and good jog!

Is this where I'm supposed to say "Come on bro, just meet me on the sand and we'll see who is soft"? Or do I just spelling troll you with a
"It's *You're"

Funny thing, I got quite a few PM's and texts saying "Finally, someone called dorado on his shit"

We're not in highschool anymore, lets act like a couple of grown adults.

[William Novotny]

I think we will make bwe history if the mods shut down a recipe post.

Funny thing, I got quite a few PM's and texts saying "Finally, someone called dorado on his shit" Another "Hero" in town?

We're not in highschool anymore, lets act like a couple of grown adults. name calling is quite suspect on your part, yes?


Again, I don't care for burnt breading on fish:D

[William Novotny]

Dorado, your antagonistic ways are completely see through. For all of the money you possess you probably for the life of you couldn't BUY a real friend so your weak attempt at Internet bullying safeguards you from feeling rejected in the end. Its ok dude, we're all friends here. We won't step on your feelings. Let go of the anger.

[makobob]

Dorado50, Sir, go catch another fish. A big one on light tackle, in a small boat? Please post pictures.

[Drake]

I'll be his friend if he showers me in cash...

You know me quite well?. We have never met, never talked face to face, never interacted at all, yet you seem to know me like a best friend! . You are quite gifted. I don't know you but you are most likely a very nice person and probably a cool guy to know. However, I did not find your fish dish appealing at all (sorry, and if you reread my opinion I said nothing negative about YOU at all) Since we are all friends here(as you say) a friend should never lie to a friend............

I only know you from collected mass opinions of others that know you and I think I have a fairly good idea of exactly the type of person you are. So don't play semantics with me. You like putting people down or making them feel bad and that, my friend, is just pathetic.

[dorado50]

Why u mad?

[William Novotny]

Have a good night bud. If I ever see you on the water ill throw you a cold one. My feeling are not that easily hurt
