Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rinse the fish in cold water; drain but do not dry.

In a shallow dish, combine the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper inside the cavity of the fish. Completely coat the fish in the flour mixture.

Using 2 large skillets, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat in each skillet. Then add 1 fish to each skillet and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the coating is crispy and the fish flakes easily with a fork, carefully turning halfway through the cooking. Serve immediately.

If you want to cook red snapper fillets instead of the whole fish, use 1 to 1-1/2 pounds of fillets and reduce the cooking time to 5 to 6 minutes (still turning halfway through the cooking).

Pan-Fried Cod with Butter Soy Sauce Pan-Fried Cod with Butter Soy Sauce
I love this combination of flavors for all kinds of seafood, including squid. My mother used to make this for me when I was growing up.Make sure to pan fry it until golden brown, then flip over.Cod falls apart easily when cooked, so use a spatula.If the fish is very thick, put a lid on the pan to make sure it cooks through.You can use any kind of fish you like, but if you use salted salmon or other salty fish, reduce the amount of soy sauce. For 2 servings. Recipe by Chiton

My mother used to make this even when the word "meunière" wasn't that well known.

Pan fry the salmon over low-medium heat slowly until crispy. Wipe out any excess oil in the frying pan before adding the butter at the end. For 2 servings. Recipe by meg115
