The following recipes are the traditional version and my twisted version both hold a place on the plates at our house.

 Pan fried haddock is a simple and satisfying dish. My mother serves it with mashed potatoes and a vegetable and I would call it a maritime classic.

Pan Fried Haddock

Haddock fillets

Butter

Flour

Salt & Pepper

Mix flour, salt & pepper. Rinse and pat dry fillets. Heat pan and melt butter. Dredge fillets in flour mixture, place in pan and fry turning only once. Haddock cooks quickly, be careful not to overcook.

This is maritime comfort food.

 Twisted Pan Fried Haddock

 Haddock fillets

Red pepper flakes

Salt & Pepper

Lemon

Olive oil

Butter

Rinse and pat dry fillets. Using a glass dish, drizzle olive oil, a few squeezes of lemon, salt & pepper, and a light sprinkle of red pepper. I like to let this marinade for 20-30 minutes. Heat pan, add olive oil and a bit of butter and pan fry. This can also be cooked in the oven, just move your pan to a pre heated 400 degree oven.

 I serve this with a simple salad, its healthy and its perfection.
