Pan Fried Haddock (or Cod)

  1. Heat your oven to 200F, and put a baking sheet inside.
  2. Youll use this to put the cooked haddock in to keep warm after frying.
  3. Prepare your haddock fillets by cutting each of them in two.
  4. Sprinkle the pancake mix from the box onto a big plate and have it handy to your stove.
  5. You dont need to prepare it as per the box directions; you just need the dry stuff.
  6. Set your beaten egg in a bowl next to the pancake mix, handy to your stove.
  7. Get a non-stick frying pan and set it on the stovetop.
  8. Set the temperature to Medium-High.
  9. Once its heated up, throw a generous dollop of butter into the pan.
  10. Dip a piece of haddock into the egg, flip, and ensure its covered with egg.
  11. Then, dip the haddock in the pancake mix.
  12. Make sure its nicely covered, then place into the frying pan along with the melted bubbling butter.
  13. You should be able to fit another fillet or two into the pan.
  14. Get those in, then wait.
  15. Youre only going to flip the fillet ONCE while cooking it.
  16. The key to pan frying fish is to not bother it too much while its cooking.
  17. Watch the fillet, and when it looks like its losing its translucence and turning opaque, sprinkle some ground pepper and salt on it, and then flip it in the pan.
  18. After the flip, sprinkle a bit more pepper and salt.
  19. Also, you may need to add a bit of additional butter to make sure it fries nicely.
  20. Each fillet should take approximately 4 minutes to cook (on both sides).
  21. Once its cooked, transfer it from the skillet to the pan that you have waiting in the oven.
  22. Then, add butter to the skillet again, dip your fillets in egg and pancake batter, and repeat the process.
  23. Once all of the fillets are done, they are ready to serve.
  24. Bon appetit!
