1/2 cup 118mlCracker meal - for breading
1/2 cup 118mlYellow meal - for breading
1/2 cup 31g / 1.1ozFlour
1/2   Vegetable oil
  Salt - to taste
  Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste
  Sauce
2 tablespoons 30mlBlacking mix
5   Button mushrooms - quartered
1   Unsalted butter - cut in half
1   Lemon
1/4 cup 59mlWhite wine
1 cup 237mlHeavy cream (40% fat)
1/2 cup 118mlShrimp - (90/110 per lb)
1 tablespoon 15mlMinced garlic
1   Parsley - chopped
1   Scallions - chopped

Recipe Instructions

Put oil in pan and heat to 350 degrees. Mix cracker meal, yellow meal and flour. Dredge fish through breading. Put fish in pan and brown on both sides. Do not burn fish, if too thick. Turn oven on to 350 degrees and finish cooking in oven. Fish is done if a toothpick goes through it easily.

For Sauce: Heat pan to high heat. Add blacking mix. Don't burn it! Add room temperature butter. To keep from burning, shake pan or remove from heat. Add mushrooms and brown. The mushrooms will soak up all of the butter, so shake pan. Once mushrooms are brown, add wine to deglaze. Once wine separates, squeeze lemon and add cream. Reduce cream until thick.

Add shrimp, parsley, and scallions. When shrimp is pink and cooked, add garlic and butter. Take off stove, mix, and pour over fish. Enjoy!
