• Set aside - it will stay pourable for 20 - 30 minutes. See Note 3 for storing.
• Pat fish dry using paper towels. Sprinkle with salt & pepper, then flour. Use fingers to spread flour. Turn and repeat. Shake excess flour off well, slapping between hands if necessary.

Stir in the salt, pepper, Worcestershire, and hot sauce and cook until the mixture is somewhat syrupy, for about 3 minutes. Stir in the cream and cook for 1 minute. Over low heat, whisk in the butter a few pats at a time. When all of the butter has been added, remove from the heat, but continue whisking until all of the butter is incorporated into the sauce.

LAZY DAYS RESTAURANT FISH WITH KEY LIME BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the water, wine and key lime juice in a large saucepan over a high heat and reduce by half, about 5 minutes.
• Add the garlic power. Add pepper to taste. Cut the butter into pats about the size of 1 tablespoon. Reduce the heat to low. Add one pat butter and whisk until the butter is incorporated. Add another pat and continue until all of the butter is used.
• Mix the water and cornstarch together and add to the sauce. Raise the heat to medium and stir until the sauce thickens and a few bubbles appear. Set aside while the fish cooks.
• Mix the eggs and water together in a small bowl (whisk vigorously til combined).
• Place the flour on a plate and dip the fish fillets into flour, coating both sides.
• Dip the fish into the egg wash.
• Place the bread crumbs on a second plate and coat the fish with bread crumbs, making sure both sides are coated.
• Heat 4 tablespoons of the Key lime butter sauce over medium-high heat in a skillet large enough to hold the fish in one layer. Add the fish and sauté for 4 minutes. It should be golden. Turn the fish and sauté for 4 minutes for 1 inch thick fillets. Sauté 2 minutes longer for thicker fish or 2 minutes less for thinner fish. The fish is cooked when the flesh is opaque, not translucent. (I had trouble sauteing in the sauce, and did use olive oil or coconut oil here).
• Place the fish on 4 dinner plates. Spoon the sauce over the fish. Sprinkle the tomatoes, scallions, parmesan cheese and parsley over the fish.
• Note: I have had the best success with setting up all ingredients before cooking. My prep time and cook time may be a bit off only because I make it an event and take my time so I guessed at both as if I was trying to get the job done normally. The ingredients are copied verbatim from book, and are in order of use, and I thought a bit confusing at first, but it works! Lastly, use real butter, good fish and fresh herbs and cheese. It makes all the difference.

LEMON SAUCE (FOR FISH)

Steps:

• When I originally wrote this recipe, I really didn't think about the garlic much. I was using peeled garlic. If you use a head of garlic, do yourself a favor: Cut the head in half across the grain, and either use a garlic roaster, or wrap the head in foil tightly and bake for an hour at 250; That will loosen the cloves, and roasting will impart more flavor. Just squeeze each clove into the pan. OR (original instruction) mince the garlic until it's very fine.
• Melt the butter in a small pan.
• Add the minced garlic. brown the mixture.
• Add the flour and whisk to form a roux.
• Add the lemon juice and milk. Continue whisking until the sauce is smooth.
• Hey! you're done! Pour a bit over your fish and enjoy!
