Ingredients
Preparation
- In a shallow rimmed pan, combine chopped almonds, 2 cups flour, panko, salt and pepper. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs and milk. Set aside. Place remaining flour in a separate shallow rimmed pan.
- Heat oil to 350°F in a large skillet or rondeau over medium-high heat.
- Dry each cod fillet and coat following standard breading procedure: dredge each fillet in flour; dip in egg mixture, shaking off excess; coat each fillet in almond-panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere coating. Discard any remaining flour, egg and almond-panko mixture after coating all fillets.
- Place fillets in oil without crowding. Fry 2 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown. Repeat until all fillets are cooked. Transfer to sheet pan and finish in oven until internal temperature reaches 145°F (flesh should be opaque and separate easily with a fork). Season with salt and pepper.
Always practice safe food handling procedures
- Wash hands with soap and water before handling any food and after handling raw meat, poultry, seafood or eggs.
- Gently rub produce under cold running water. Scrub firm produce with a clean vegetable brush under running water.
- Wash all surfaces that come in contact with raw meat, poultry, seafood and eggs to avoid cross contamination.
