Oven Baked Lake Perch Recipes

OVEN BAKED PERCH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place perch in greased baking pan, skin side down. (I use an 8"x11" glass pan.) Pour milk over fish making sure to moisten it all. Sprinkle bread crumbs on, salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle butter on fish, then bake for 20 minutes. Yield: about 8 to 9 fillets.

SAUTEED LAKE PERCH

Steps:

• Mix flour, paprika, and salt together and set aside. In a small bowl, blend the egg and the half-and-half. Heat butter in a large saute pan. Dip perch fillets in egg wash first and then into the flour mixture. Carefully place them into the hot butter in the saute pan and brown on both sides. Remove from the butter and drain on a paper towel to absorb excess butter. Serve immediately.
