    Finely ground pecans can be purchased at the grocery store. Or, grind pecans in a food processor, pulsing often until finely ground but not "butter". Store extra amounts airtight in the freezer for the next time you make the recipe.

  • 1/3  cup finely ground pecans
  • 1/2  teaspoon salt
  • 1/2  teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4  teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4  teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
  • 2  egg whites
  • 1 1/2  lb catfish, orange roughy, sole, or other medium-firm fish fillets (about 3/4 inch thick), cut into 6 serving pieces

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 450°F. Spray 15x10-inch pan with sides with cooking spray. In large resealable plastic food-storage bag, place cornflake crumbs, pecans, salt, paprika, garlic powder and red pepper; shake to mix well.
  2. 2In shallow dish, beat egg whites slightly with fork. Dip fish into egg whites; place in bag. Seal bag and shake until fish is evenly coated. Place in pan.
  3. 3Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork.
