• 2 sprays olive oil cooking spray

Preparation

Step 1

Rinse fish; pat dry. Place fish on a plate and spread both sides of fish with mustard; dip into egg white and set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine cornmeal, parmesan cheese, thyme, salt and pepper. Dust fish with cornmeal mixture; making sure to cover both sides.

Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and set over medium to medium high heat; heat oil until shimmering. Add fish to skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on one side; flip fish and cook until done on other side, about 2 to 3 minutes more.

Serve fish with lemon wedges. Yields about 3 oz of fish per serving.
