Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 4 oz fish fillet choose a white, flaky fish like mahi mahi or halibut

  • 1 cup whole Lemon Pepper OMG! Pretzels approximately half of a bag
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

    1 cup whole Lemon Pepper OMG! Pretzels
  • Lightly season each fish fillet with salt and pepper.
    2 4 oz fish fillet
  • Brush each fish fillet liberally with mustard to coat (this is what makes the pretzels stick to the fish).ย HINT: You can use the back of a spoon if you donโ€™t have a pastry brush.
  • Dredge each fillet in the Lemon Pepper OMG! Pretzels. You may have to lightly press the fish into the pretzels to get them to stick to both sides of the fillet. Then, place the fish on a lightly oiled sheet pan.
