Ingredients: 3/4 cup dry bread crumbs 3/4 cup yellow cornmeal 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 4 pieces (6 ounce size) center-cut cod or scrod fillet (3/4-inch thick) 2 large eggs, lightly beaten 6 tablespoons vegetable oil lemon wedges, for accompaniment tartar sauce, for accompaniment
Directions: Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
Combine bread crumbs, cornmeal, salt, and cayenne in a large resealable plastic bag and shake to mix.
Season fish with salt and pepper on both sides and, working with 1 piece at a time, put fish in bag and shake to coat well with crumbs.
Dip fish in eggs, then shake in crumbs again to coat. Transfer fish to a plate.
Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy ovenproof skillet (preferably cast-iron) over high heat until hot but not smoking, then fry fish until undersides are golden brown, about 1 minute. Turn over, add remaining 3 tablespoons oil, and cook 1 minute more.
Put skillet in upper third of oven and bake until fish is just cooked through, about 5 minutes.
