Pan-Fried Fish Fillets
A simple and delicious recipe for pan-fried fish fillets that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Perfect for a quick and healthy meal.
Ingredients
- 2 fillets white fish such as cod or tilapia
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour for coating the fish
- 1/2 teaspoon salt to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying
- 1 lemon lemon cut into wedges for serving
Instructions
- Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel. This helps the flour stick better.
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, and black pepper. Dredge each fish fillet in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish fillets and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the fillets from the skillet and let them drain briefly on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
