Graham-Cracker Crusted Cod

Ingredients

• 1 lb tilapia, cod, haddock or other medium-firm fish fillets, about 3/4 inch thick
• 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (about 8 squares)
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 1/4 cup fat-free (skim) milk
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 2 tablespoons chopped toasted pecans

Directions

1. Move oven rack to position slightly above middle of oven. Heat oven to 500F.
2. Cut fish fillets crosswise into 2-inch-wide pieces. In shallow dish, mix cracker crumbs, lemon peel, salt and pepper. Place milk in another shallow dish.
3. Dip fish into milk, then coat with cracker mixture. Place in ungreased 13x9-inch pan. Drizzle oil over fish; sprinkle with pecans.
4. Bake about 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork.

   Toasting nuts adds a lot of great flavor. To toast nuts, bake uncovered in ungreased shallow pan in 350F oven 6 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until light brown.
