Fried Red Snapper w/ Hash Browns and Cut Green Beans

Dinner Tonight: Fried Red Snapper w/ Hash Browns and Cut Green Beans





Another cold but sunny day out. Made a Bob Evan's Pork Sausage Pattie Sandwich for Breakfast this morning, first one I've had in quite a while. After Breakfast got a load of laundry started and then a couple of errands for Mom and back home. For dinner tonight Red Snapper! I prepared Fried Red Snapper w/ Hash Browns and Cut Green Beans.

Some good friends of mine just returned from Florida and brought me a few fillets of Red Snapper they caught while down there, it doesn't get much better! I love Gulf Coast Fish, always such a fresh taste to them. To prepare them, I first rinsed the Snapper off in cold water and patted dry with a paper towel. I seasoned it with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt. Then put the fillet in a Hefty Zip Plastic Bag and added Zatarain's Lemon Pepper Breading Fish Fri. Then shook the bag until the Fillet was well covered, removed from the bag shaking off the excess. I then pan fried it in a Cast Iron Skillet, that I had preheated, in Canola Oil. I fried it skin side down for 4 minutes and then flipped it over to the flesh side and fried it another 3 minutes. Golden brown and nothing but delicious! The fresh taste of the Snapper combined with the Zatarain's Lemon Pepper Breading Fish Fri is a perfect pairing.

For one side I prepared some Simply Potatoes Hash Browns, I always use Simply Potatoes Hash Browns. Fried them in Extra Virgin Olive Oil and seasoned them with Sea Salt, Ground Pepper, and Parsley. I also heated up a can of Del Monte Cut Green Beans. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl Frozen Yogurt.

Seasoned Haddock w/ Potato Pancakes and Cut Green Beans

Today’s Menu: Seasoned Haddock w/ Potato Pancakes and Cut Green Beans

Beautiful Fall Like morning out again, 44 degrees and sunny. Warmed up to about 70, gorgeous outside! i had an early morning check-up at my new Oncologist, real nice guy and should work out great. My old Oncologist retired earlier this year. Came home did a little housework and got the cart out and enjoyed the beautiful day. For dinner tonight I prepared Seasoned Haddock w/ Potato Pancakes and Cut Green Beans.

I had the fillet of Haddock in the freezer so I let it thaw overnight in the fridge. To prepare it I rinsed the fillet in cold water and patted dry with a paper towel. Then sliced the fillet into smaller pieces. I then seasoned it with just a bit of Sea Salt and put the pieces in a Hefty Zip Plastic Bag where I then added Zatarain’s Lemon Pepper Breading Mix. Shook until all the pieces were well coated. Shook off the excess and pan fried them in Canola Oil, frying them about 3 minutes per side until golden brown. Haddock and Zatarain’s Lemon Pepper Mix, the perfect combo. The more I have Haddock the more I like it. It's a meaty delicious and mild tasting fish.

For a side dish I made some Potato Pancakes. I used Manischewitz Potato Pancake Mix, my favorite (Never made a cake I didn’t like!). Just add 2 Egg Beater’s (1/2 Cup), 2 1/4 Cups Water, to the mix stir and fry! Easy and makes one good Potato Pancake and their only 80 calories and 18 carbs per serving (3 Potato Pancakes). I also heated up a can of Del Monte Cut Green Beans. For dessert later a Healthy Choice dark Fudge Swirl Frozen Greek Yogurt.
