It is Friday in Lent, are you getting tired of fish yet? Several Fridays is a row we have had fish sticks and fries, but tonight I am going to work a little harder. I saw this recipe on tv, and after a few modifications to make it easier, it has become a favorite around here. I hope you enjoy it.
Ingredients
- 1 whole tail piece fresh halibut (1 1/4 inches thick, by about 1 foot long), usually I use frozen fish (halibut or cod) that comes in serving size pieces.
- 1 all-purpose flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup milk
- 1 1/2 cups Italian style bread crumbs
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 package hoagie rolls (or if you are using the whole piece, a loaf of french bread, slice in half lengthwise)
Directions
heat oven to 350 degrees F.
Put a large sheet tray in oven and heat it for 1/2 hour.
Begin by patting the halibut fillet dry. If you have a tail end piece cut the fillet down the middle so you can invert the 2 pieces next to each other to form a nice rectangular shape that matches the bread. Set up a breading station with flour, beaten egg and milk, and bread crumbs in separate containers. Season with salt and pepper. Dip each fillet into the flour, egg mixture, and then breadcrumbs. Set aside on a tray at room temperature to let the coating set.
Pull out sheet tray from oven, spray with oil or cooking spray and transfer breaded fish to tray. Sprinkle with olive oil. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
Construct the sandwich with your favorite toppings, enjoy, Lent is only a few more weeks.
