Dinner Tonight:Seasoned Breaded Yellow Lake Perch w/ Cut Green Beans, Hash Browns, and Whole Grain Bread





After a few perfect days out the rain has set in. It's rained most of the day, heavy at times, and continue through most of tomorrow. We need the rain though and the weekend is supposed to be beautiful. I had laid a 3 small Yellow Lake Perch fillets out in the fridge overnight to thaw. So for dinner tonight I prepared Season Breaded Yellow Lake Perch w/ Cut Green Beans, Hash Browns, and Whole Grain Bread.




I rinsed the fillets off and patted dry with a paper towel. I then seasoned them with Sea Salt and Black Ground Pepper and then rolled them in Zatarain's Garlic Seasoning Breading Mix. Sprayed a  medium size skillet with Pam Spray and added 1 tablespoon of Canola Oil, then preheated on medium heat. I added the fillets to the pan, skin side down, and fried it a total of about 2 1/2 minutes per side. The fillets came out just like I like them, Golden Brown and with a incredible taste! I love using the Zatarain's Breading mix on Fish, it's perfect!





For sides I heated a 1 serving can of Del Monte Cut Green Beans. I also fried some Simply Potatoes Has Browns, seasoned them with Sea Salt, Ground Black Pepper, and Parsley. And had Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread. For dessert tonight a Jello Sugarless Double Chocolate Pudding topped with Cool Whip Free.

Yellow lake perch

The yellow perch (Perca flavescens), commonly referred to as perch, is a freshwater perciform fish native to much of North America. The yellow perch was described in 1814 by Samuel Latham Mitchill from New York. Yellow perch are closely related, and morphologically similar to the European perch (Perca fluviatilis); however, the two are recognized as independent species based on anatomical and genetic differences. Other common names for yellow perch include American perch, coontail, lake perch, raccoon perch, ring-tail perch, ringed perch, and striped perch.
Latitudinal variability in age, growth rates, and size have been observed among populations of yellow perch, likely resulting from differences in day-length and annual water temperatures. Typically, northern populations of yellow perch live longer and grow to larger sizes. However, southern populations of yellow perch generally grow much faster. In many populations, yellow perch often live from 9-10 years, with adults generally ranging from 4-10 inches in length.
The world record yellow perch (18 in., 4 lb. 3 oz.)was caught in 1865 from New Jersey, and is the longest standing record for freshwater fish in North America. Anglers often refer to large yellow perch as "jumbo perch" or "jack perch".
