Provided by Stephanie Gallagher

Categories     Dinner     Entree

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

For the Fish
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 egg whites
2 cups panko bread crumbs (Japanese bread crumbs)
1 1/2 pounds codfish fillets
Dash kosher salt
Dash freshly ground black pepper
For Lemon Butter Sauce
1/3 cup lemon juice (fresh)
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt (kosher)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a large nonstick frying pan , heat butter and olive oil over medium heat.
  • Set up a breading station with two shallow dishes. Beat the egg whites and set them in one dish. Spread out panko breadcrumbs in a thin layer in another shallow dish.
  • Dip the cod first in the egg whites, then in the panko, pressing lightly to help the breadcrumbs adhere. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Sauté the coated fillets in the butter-olive oil mixture until golden, about 3 minutes.
  • Flip and cook on the other side until cooked through. The fish will be opaque and flake easily with a fork. If using an instant-read or meat thermometer, the internal temperature should reach 145 F.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the lemon juice and vinegar over medium-low heat until the mixture is reduced by half, about 6 minutes.
  • Stir in butter and salt.
  • Drizzle sauce lightly over the crispy codfish fillets. Serve and enjoy!
