Steps:
- Dip the flounder fillets in the egg wash (beaten eggs with water or milk) and allow them to drain the excess egg wash off for a few seconds.
- Dredge the flounder in the seasoned bread crumbs, completely coating the fillets.
- Heat a deep frying pan with enough oil to cover the flounder while its cooking. About an inch depth of oil should be enough. Too little oil and the fish will stick ot the pan. It should be able to float as it cooks.Gently press the flounder down to get the top of the fish cooked properly. If you are able to turn the flounder without breaking it, go for it. But remember the flounder is a very delicate fish.
- When the flounder is floating (about 6-8 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets) it should be fully cooked.
- Allow the flounder to drain on paper towels briefly, then serve and enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the freshest flounder fillets you can find. Look for fillets that are firm and white, with no brown or yellow spots.
- Pat the fillets dry before cooking. This will help them to crisp up in the pan.
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. This will help to evenly cook the fillets and give them a nice crust.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you do, the fillets will not cook evenly.
- Cook the fillets over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
- Flip the fillets halfway through cooking. This will help them to cook evenly on both sides.
- Serve the fillets immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Golden fried flounder fillets with onion is a quick and easy recipe that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fillets are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the onion adds a delicious sweetness. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
