Willin' Fish Fillets

I eat a lot of fish. If you ask my coworkers, at least twice a month I have prepared fish to bring to work for my lunches, and this recipe was a new coating that I have never tried before, so I was super pumped take this recipe for a whirl. Plus it calls for wine, and I love cooking with wine.

Ingredients
     1 1/2 lb of fish
     Dry white wine
     Vegetable oil
     2 tbs of butter, melted
     3 tbs of lemon juice
     1 tbs of Dijon mustard
     1/2 cup of breadcrumbs
     1/2 tbs of paprika
     1/2 tbs of dill
     1/2 tps of salt
     1/4 tsp of black pepper


Directions
     Combine together butter, lemon juice and dijon mustard in a shallow bowl, and in a second shallow bowl combine breadcrumbs, paprika, dill, salt and pepper. 
      Brush butter mixture on fish, then drip in breadcrumb mix. 
      Heat 2 tbs of oil in nonstick pan, and place fish in the oil. 
      Cover pan and cook on medium to high heat, adding white wine to not burn the fish. 
      After about 5 minutes, flip fish and let them cook for another 5. 


Changes I made!
   My coating fell off really quickly, so I ended up using the coating as a sauce, and it came out delicious. 


This recipe comes from The Book Lover's Cook Book.

Unfried Chicken
