Seared Fish Fillet with Mushroom Crust

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds Fish fillets (Striped Bass, Croaker, or Sea Bass)
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 pound Mushrooms, dried and pulverized
  • 2 tablespoons Oil, garlic infused

Instructions

Cut the mushrooms and dry them for about 4 hours in an oven at 200 degrees. When they are dry and cooled, process them in a spice grinder or blender until powdered.

Wash and trim the fillets. Remove the skin. Season with salt and pepper and coat with mushroom powder. Heat the oil in a non stick pan and sear the fillets, until browned. Turn the fillets gently and brown on the second side. Do not over cook.
