Greek Fried Fish

- EVOO for frying
- salt and black pepper
- 2 cups flour
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 2 cups bread crumbs
- zest of 1 lemon, juice of lemon, divided
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tbsp seafood seasoning, like "Old Bay"
- 4 tilapia filets

Put a large skillet over medium-high heat with 1/2 inch of EVOO in the bottom of the pan. Set up three dishes on the counter. Fill one with flour, one with the beaten eggs, and the last with breadcrumbs, lemon zest, oregano, and seafood seasoning, mixed well.

Season the tilapia filets on both sides with salt and pepper, then dip them in the flour, then in the egg, and finally int he breadcrumb mixture.

Once the EVOO is hot, cook the tilapia until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 2 minutes on each side.

Serve with this Greek-style sauce. So wonderful!
