Panko Crusted Cod Fish Sandwich w/ Baked Crinkle Fries

Dinner Tonight: Panko Crusted Cod Fish Sandwich w/ Baked Crinkle Fries






Started off the morning with a bowl of Cereal, Honey Nut Cheerios Medley Crunch. After Breakfast I started a couple of loads of laundry for Mom and did some light house cleaning. After lunch I headed over to spend the afternoon over at the rehab center to see Dad. He's getting stronger, but slowly. Had more rain overnight and into the morning. Stopped raining but windy and cloudy all day. So for dinner tonight I prepared a Panko Crusted Cod Fish Sandwich w/ Baked Crinkle Fries.
 


I had purchased the Cod from Kroger and had it in the freezer. I laid the Cod in the fridge overnight to thaw. To prepare the Cod I rinsed the fillet off with cold water and patted dry. I then cut the fillet in

half. Then seasoned them with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Peppercorn Medley. Combined the flour and both Garlic Powder and Onion powder then press both sides of fillet into flour for a light dusting , shaking off any excess flour. Dipped the floured fillets into the Paprika seasoned Egg Beater’s, allowing excess to drip off. Placed the fillets, one at a time, in Panko Bread Crumbs, and lightly toss fillets until both sides are covered. Meanwhile, heated the Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a skillet and placed the fillets in and cooked 3 minutes each side. Served on a Aunt Millie’s Reduced Calorie Whole Grain Bun. I love making Fish Sandwiches with Cod and the Panko Bread Crumbs. Cod cooks up great no matter how you prepare it. Plus it’s a very meaty Fish.




I also baked some Ore Ida Crinkle Fries, served these with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup for dipping. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl Frozen Greek Yogurt.
