Ingredients:

• 6 perch, 
• Vegetable oil or shortening
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

 How to cook Pan Fried Perch:

• Heat oil (1-inch) in 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle both sides of perch fillets with salt and pepper.
•  Dip fish into water and shake off excess (may use egg if desired)
• Shake the fish gently in a Zip-loc bag with 1/2 cup of Gramma Boop’s Perfect Fish Coating (Availabel from Chuck’s Fishing Charters)
• Add more coating as required (removing clumps as needed)
• Fry fish in batches in oil 6 to 10 minutes, turning once, until fish flakes easily with fork and is brown on both sides. Fish cooks very quickly; be careful not to overcook.
• Remove fried fish fillets with dotted spoons, drain on double layer of paper towels
