"My family loves fish, so I serve it often," writes Joann Frazier Hensley of McGaheysville, Virginia. "Seasoned pepper really adds to the flavor of these tender fillets."

Ingredients

  • 1 cup crushed cornflakes
  • 2 teaspoons seasoned pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 large egg whites
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 6 orange roughy fillets (4 ounces each)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Directions

  1. In a shallow dish, combine the cornflakes, seasoned pepper and salt. In another shallow dish, beat egg whites and water. In a third shallow bowl, add flour. Coat fish with flour; dip in egg white mixture, then roll in cornflake mixture.
  2. Place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 425° for 9-11 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
