Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds white fish fillets (such as sea bass, orange roughy or red snapper), each about 1 inch thick
Coarse salt
3 large eggs, beaten to blend
1 cup unsalted matzo meal
4 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 cup (or more) vegetable oil
Lemon wedges
Fresh cilantro sprigs

Steps:

  • Sprinkle fish fillets generously on all sides with coarse salt; let stand 30 minutes. Rinse fish to remove salt and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Place eggs and matzo meal in separate large shallow bowls. Mix chili powder, cumin, black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt in small bowl to blend. Sprinkle fish generously with chili powder mixture. Dip fish into eggs, then into matzo meal, coating completely. Transfer fish to waxed paper.
  • Heat 1/4 cup oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, fry fish in single layer until just opaque in center and golden brown, adding more oil if necessary, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer fish to paper towels and drain.
  • Arrange fish on platter. Garnish with lemon wedges and cilantro sprigs.

I love this recipe because it's so versatile. You can use any type of fish you like and the sauce can be adjusted to your taste. I've made it with tilapia, cod, and salmon and it's always delicious.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best fish he's ever had. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less chili next time.
