I love using different crusts on fish and chicken. This is excellent with a white fillet such as catfish, tilapia or halibut. The mayonnaise aioli has just enough spice to really compliment the fish!

Tips:

  • To ensure the crispiest crust, make sure the cornflakes are crushed into fine crumbs. You can use a food processor or a rolling pin to achieve this.
  • For a more flavorful crust, use seasoned cornflakes. You can find these in the cereal aisle of most grocery stores.
  • To prevent the cornflake crust from becoming soggy, be sure to pat the halibut fillets dry before coating them.
  • If you don't have a deep fryer, you can also pan-fry the halibut fillets. Just be sure to use a heavy-bottomed skillet and cook the fillets over medium heat so that they cook evenly.
  • Serve the halibut fillets immediately with the chile-cilantro aioli for the best flavor.

Cornflake-crusted halibut with chile-cilantro aioli is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
