INGREDIENTS

1 pound fish fillets (cod, bass or sole), rinsed and patted dry
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon Tony Chachere’s Louisiana Pepper Sauce
1 teaspoon Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning
1 cup Tony Chachere’s Crispy Creole Fish Fry Mix

3 tablespoons dill pickles, finely chopped or sweet pickle relish
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

PREPARATION
