- 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup crushed cashews
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 2 (8 ounce) trout fillets
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, or as needed
- 2 teaspoons butter
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- Heat a flat griddle pan over medium heat.
- Mix panko, cashews, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl. Whisk eggs and milk together in a separate bowl.
- Dust trout with flour until evenly coated. Dip floured trout in egg mixture, then press trout into cashew mixture until thoroughly coated.
- Melt butter and oil together in the hot griddle pan. Place trout, flesh-side down, into the pan and cook for 3 minutes. Flip and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 3 minutes more.
