California Sand Dabs Recipes

Steps:

• Dip the sand dabs into the beaten egg;season with salt & pepper, roll in panko or bread crumbs.
• Heat a large skillet, add butter and fry until golden brown and crisp.
• Serve with lemon wedges or your favorite tarter sauce.

Steps:

• Drizzle olive oil on each side of the fillets. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Put in broiler for 2 or 3 minutes on each side. Once cooked, squeeze lemon over, to taste.

Steps:

• Coat the fillets on both sides with seasoned cracker meal. Heat about 4 to 6 tablespoons of cooking oil in a large shallow pan. Add sand dabs and fry over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Remove the filets with a spatula and place on a warmed serving platter.
• Use a little of the pan juices to pour over the fish. Keep them hot. Fry the remaining fillets, adding more oil if needed. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste, and garnish with the parsley. Add lemon wedges and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Beat milk and egg together in a bowl. Season flour with salt and pepper; dredge each fish fillet in flour mixture, then dip into the egg-milk mixture. Roll in bread crumbs until thoroughly coated.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook fillets in the hot oil until nicely golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve immediately, accompanied with lemon wedges.
