Pan-Fried Halibut

My Dad goes fishing to the coast every year and fills our deep-freeze with fresh salmon and halibut. We've always loved salmon, but the halibut gets requested more and more each year. This is a simple recipe, but the best for enjoying the fish fresh:

fresh halibut fillets - about 3/4 inch thickness works well
crushed cornflakes
well-seasoned flour (salt & pepper or seasoning salt)
beaten egg
butter...lot's and lots of butter!!!

Lightly pat the fillets dry with a paper towel. Dredge in flour, then egg, then crushed cornflakes. Fry in butter until golden, flipping half-way. Remove when the fish flakes at a gentle touch. Serve hot or keep warm in the oven until ready to eat. This fish will melt in your mouth. Serve with rice, steamed veggies and soy sauce. Deelishus!
