Breaded + Fish + Fry

These are typically not words I use together – I don’t fry fish – period.  Fried fish makes me think “fast food” and “golden arches”.  I will broil it, grill it, ceviche it, steam it, poach it and bake it.  I had some Lake Erie Perch that a relative gave us and wanted to give it more flavor, since Perch is kind of bland.  For an experiment I ground up some herbed, dry stuffing and dredged the fish through the crumbs after they got an egg bath.  I pan fried the filets in Olive Oil for a couple minutes per side – the flavor was great !  I definitely will be doing this again, and will not be thinking “drive thru” !
