This dish is a super spicy alternative to plain-coated fish. Make the coating as hot or as mild as you wish.

Suggestions:

You can make cajun-flavoured breadcrumbs by combining cajun seasoning with breadcrumbs.

Lower-fat fish varieties include Barramundi, Perch, Snapper and Bream.

Ingredients:

4 fish fillets, about 100g per fillet

1/4 cup plain flour

1 egg, lightly whisked

1/2 cup cajun-flavoured breadcrumbs

1 Tbsp olive oil

Directions:

Coat fillets first in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat.

Cook for 2 to 3 minutes each side, or until cooked through.

Variations:

Serve with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables, if desired. Please note: serving suggestions are not included in the nutritional information.

I like the idea of being able to make the cajun seasoning as hot or as cool as you want. I served this dish with citrus salad, went very well together.
