Ingredients

  • 2 Tbls butter
  • 1/2 c Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 c yellow cornmeal
  • 1/4 c flour
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp Spanish or smoked paprika (as long as you like that smoked paprika flavor)
  • 2 lbs rockfish (snapper), skinless & boneless; could also use bluefish, ocian perch or cod

Equipment

  • Clean paper bag; like a large lunch bag (yeah... the size I get to scoop the cat litter is perfect, but I don't really like to think about it...)
  • Large baking dish (like lasagna)
  • Small bowl to melt butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Melt the butter in microwave and pour into the baking pan (cuz it probably won't fit in your microwave).
  3. Combine the Parmesan, cornmeal, flour, pepper, and paprika together in a paper bag. 
  4. Place a filet in bag and shake to coat. Remove and place in baking dish.
  5. Repeat step 4 for each filet.
  6. Turn each filet over once to coat with butter, and then shake the remaining Parmesan/flour/cornmeal mixture onto the fish.
  7. Bake until golden brown and the fish flakes apart when tested with a fork, approximately 15-20 minutes.

Goodbye Seattle Center...
