Instead of deep-frying to get a crispy crust for fish – this method is a good lean and mean alternative. The cornmeal and sesame give a wonderful textured crust and there’s a double coriander flavour with the fresh herb and crushed seeds.
ingredients
directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Add cornmeal, sesame seeds, cracked coriander to plate or shallow baking dish. Season mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
Season the fish with salt and pepper. Dip fish into freshly chopped coriander. Dredge fish generously into the cornmeal mixture, coating evenly on all sides.
Add oil to non-stick skillet or large sauté pan over medium high heat. When oil is hot, pan sear fish on both sides until golden, about 1 to 2 minutes per side.
Transfer to baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake fish in oven until just firm to the touch and cooked through, about 7 to 9 minutes.
