Cornflake Crusted Crispy Cod

Ingredients:
1 lb cod fillets (or flounder)
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 1/2 cups corn flakes (read label, choose low sugar brand)
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 whole egg
1 egg white

While oven is preheating to 325, spray non-stick cooking spray into a baking dish. Put cornflakes, cayenne pepper, paprika and black pepper into a zip top bag and crush everything together. Personally, I like the texture the cornflakes add, but you can also crush them into a powder if you want. When it’s the consistency you want, empty the bag into a shallow dish.

Put the egg and egg white into a separate shallow dish, and whisk it completely. Dip the fish into the eggs, then completely dredge it in the dish with the cornflake mixture, then put it into your oiled baking dish. Keep a close eye on it because it bakes quickly, 15 to 18 minutes or until the fish flakes with a fork and is opaque.

This is a great alternative to fried fish, and the cornflakes add a unique flavor too. It serves 4, with only 164 calories per serving and 199 mg sodium per serving.

    This is a yummy recipe. Recently I used Wheat Germ in place of corn flakes. Pretty darn tasty too. You can find Wheat Germ on the cereal isle near the oatmeal, comes in a glass jar.
