What's For Dinner: Spicy Cajun Pollock

So, today was one of "those" days. Last night, I was kept up with food poisoning (not from anything I made, from take-out), my husband came home sick from work with food poisoning, and I had two cavities filled at the dentist and my face was still frozen when it was time to start thinking about dinner. With all of this and a busy one year old - what was I to do? My husband took it upon himself to cook dinner using a recipe he pretty much made up on the spot.

Using basic ingredients that we had in our freezer and pantry, he was able to whip up a pretty decent meal in no time at all, leaving me with the time to sit on the couch and whine about how much my face hurts and beg him to go get me more ice cream. Here is the recipe for Derek's special spicy cajun pollock:

Ingredients:
  • 4 - 6 pieces of any whitefish (we had pollock on hand, but really anything will work)
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 4 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Cajun seasoning
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 400
  • Combine breadcrumbs, Cajun spice, thyme, and salt and pepper in to a medium bowl
  • Coat fish with butter, then roll in the spices
  • Place on a greased baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes
Here is the finished product, I apologize for the crappy photography, it's the camera. Not me.

Lesson learned, my husband can cook dinner whenever he chooses!
