mayo and then coat with breadcrumbs. Bake in a hot oven 400 to 425. Flavor the breadcrumbs with anything you like---even cheese.

 
I know of that one, but here is a really good one, make sure no one can hear us? shhhhhhhh

dip fish in ranch dressing, then fresh bread crumbs and bake.
Freakin' good, wows everyone, and I can't stand ranch dressing.

here is one I use for Oven Fried Chicken ~ RECIPE included too

OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN


PREHEAT OVEN 450◦

Ingredients:

1 ¼ cups Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
½ cup mayonnaise (can be fat-free)
¼ teaspoon salt (can eliminate)
½ teaspoon poultry seasoning
¼ teaspoon red pepper
¼ teaspoon celery salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 TABLESPOON dehydrated onions (*optional)
4 to 8 skinned and boned chicken breast halves

Step 1

On a plate, stir together breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.

Step 2

On a second plate, add mayonnaise. Add spices to the mayonnaise and mix together.

Step 3

Grease 13 x 9 baking dish with vegetable spray, set aside.

Step 4

Dip chicken breast into the mayonnaise mixture, then dredge the mayonnaise coated chicken breast in the bread crumb mixture, then place in greased baking dish. Repeat until all chicken is done.

NOTE: do not over coat the chicken in bread crumb mixture; over coating does not make the chicken taste good. Lightly coat the chicken with the bread crumb mixture. Can shake chicken very slightly after dipping into bread crumb mixture... but lightly coat entire chicken breast evenly.

Step 5

Sprinkle dehydrated onions over prepared chicken breasts. Can use more or less of the 1 tablespoon of the dehydrated onions.

NOTE: Though it is optional to use dehydrated onions, it does enhance the flavor of the southern oven-fried chicken.

Step 6

Bake @ 450◦ for 20 minutes or until chicken is done, golden on top; onions may be blackened. Serve.

 
Here's a similar recipe.

This is a classic Alaska recipe. Most sources say it was originally Halibut Caddy Ganty

named for a lady who had a lodge in Gustavus in Glacier Park. It is also called Halibut Gustavus, and several other names.
It varies a bit except the equal sour cream and mayo seem to always stay the same. I like to soak the halibut in white wine for a bit. Some people add a bit of lemon juice or Worchershire to the mix. I sometimes add seeded and chopped tomatoes. This was in supposed original version, along with a splash of cider vinegar.
This recipe has cracker crumbs on top, I usually see fresh bread crumbs. Sometimes with cheese. To me cheese seems a little much?
Enjoy,

I love halibut. We're currently buying Alaskan online for $20/pound. Does anyone

know a more reasonable source?

We're getting it from Vital Source.

 
Hate to tell you, it is $15 # here in Ketchikan and I think the same in Seattle. Do you have a big

fish market nearby that can let you know if they get a big shipment at a better price??

Halibut is not one of my favorites. Haven't checked on price for cod or snapper lately?

Am embarrased to tell you what I have been paying for fresh, troll caught king salmon--$22 a pound for red and $24 for white, a.k.a. ivory salmon. There is frozen sockeye at supermarket for around ten and it's not awful.

With the king, half pound does make a dinner with some left to top salad or toss in pasta for another.

Wow, wish I had better news.

I used the one in T&T the other day #2

with Halibut as it called for and it was on sale 5.99 for each piece and it was wonderful. Added garlic, paprika to the breadcrumbs. Big hit with BF who is picky

 
Broiled Flounder with Parmesan "Caesar" Glaze. I made this last night, it's a variation on

one I've used often with mayo, parm and green onion. Also good on cauliflower.

The flounder filets I bought were very thin and small, about 3 ounces each. I've found rolling them up helps them not overcook. I got the Rick Rogers recipe from Fine Cooking magazine, but last night I made a sort of filling from sauteed onions and mushrooms and rolled them up with that inside. Served with boiled new potatoes, baby peas and coleslaw. Easy and good.

Broiled Flounder with Parmesan “Caesar” Glaze

8 skinless flounder fillets, 4 to 5 ounces each
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup good-quality mayonnaise
1-1/2 ounces (1/2 cup) freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano, grated on the small holes of a box grater
1-1/2 tablespoons loosely packed finely grated lemon zest (from 1 large lemon)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 small clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Position a rack 4 inches from the heat element and heat the broiler on high. Lightly season both sides of the fillets with salt and pepper. Set a fillet before you, skinned side up, and starting at the narrow end, roll up the fillet. Repeat with the remaining fillets.

Spray a broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange the flounder rolls, seam side down, in the pan. Broil until the tops are lightly browned, 7 to 8 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the mayonnaise, Parmesan, lemon zest and juice, Worcestershire, and garlic in a small bowl. Season with pepper to taste.

When the tops of the fillets are lightly browned, remove the fish from the broiler. Spread equal amounts of the mayonnaise mixture over the top of each fillet. Return to the broiler until the topping is golden brown and bubbling, 1-1/2 to 2 minutes. Transfer the fillets to four dinner plates and sprinkle with the parsley. Serve immediately

 
Heavenly Broiled Grouper...here's a recipe for the parm/mayo/green onion topping.

Heavenly Broiled Grouper

2 lbs grouper fillets
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 Tbs butter or margarine, softened
3 Tbs mayonnaise (can use reduced fat)
3 Tbs chopped green onions
1 clove garlic, pressed
1/4 tsp salt
dash hot sauce



1 Place fillets in a single layer in a lightly greased 13- x 9-inch pan. Stir together cheese and next 6 ingredients; spread over fillets.
2 Broil 6 inches from heat (with electric oven door partially open) 10 minutes or until lightly browned and fish flakes with a fork.


Yield: 6 to 8 servings

 
Same story here: grouper is caught right off our coast and yet it's $16 pound.

Thanks for the Alaskan price info. As least I don't feel like we're being gouged.

 
Marilyn, my neighbor, a commercial fisherman, told me our grouper and Red Snapper is sent to NY. The

seafood we get here is from South America.

He's not a fisherman anymore. He's gotten stuck with fins so many times that his body is rejecting antibiotics. The doctors told him if goes out again and gets stuck he'll die, so he doesn't fishing anymore.
