2 large or 4 small snook (or any other "mild, white" fillet)
1 to 2 cups bread crumbs (depending on preference)
1/2 cup flour
2 raw eggs
1/2 cup olive oil
Sauce:
1 whole fresh lemon wedged
1 to 2 cloves fresh garlic (to taste) sliced thin or chopped
1/2 cup sherry
2 Tbls olive oil
1 Tbls Worcestershire sauce
1 tspn salt & pepper
Sprinkle of Nutmeg if you like sweeter...
Sprinkle of Cayenne if you prefer spicy...
(other seasonings optional - garlic salt, oregano, parsley, etc.)
Cooking:
Preheat oven at 350 F.
Prepare fillets by rubbing in egg and olive oil mixture.
Next roll in breadcrumbs on one side for top and flour for other on bottom.
Set flour side down on lightly greased baking sheet or shallow pan.
Next heat oil and sherry on stove on medium heat.
When hot add remaining sauce ingredients with exception of lemon.
Squeeze the juice from about half the lemon into the cooking sauce and cook until the garlic is golden.
Add more sherry if the sauce boils down.
Pour sauce evenly over fillets and bake for about 10 minutes... switch to broil and leave in for about 3 to 5 minutes... (bread crumbs should turn dark brown.)
Meat will be tender, juicy, and tangy when done!!!
If you try it let me know if you like... everyone I've cooked it for has said it's the best fish EVER!
