Quick and easy fish

I've been working pretty hard on my math recently, so last night when I left my office at 10:30pm(yes... it was Sunday...) I needed something to distract me from mathematical thought. Cooking always does that well, but I was pretty tired. So I decided to go to the M2M (a local Asian convenience store) to get some sushi. The prepared spicy Tuna I like was sold out. After searching around a little I decided to pick up some sole (it cost 2$ for three nice fillets). I prepared the fish as simple as possible. I first ground some pepper and scattered a little salt onto the fish. Then I dredged it in a little cornmeal (flour would work too, but I figured I'd give this a chance) and added a little garlic powder for extra flavor. Then, I remembered back to my days of Ellington fancy dinners and recalled that people would sometimes serve fish pinenut encrusted... so I crushed some pinenuts with the side of my knife and diced them and added them as a crust.

I heated up my second favorite castiron and put a little butter on and quickly placed the fish in the melted butter. The fish took just a few minutes on each side and when done (I ate it with rice) was wonderful tasting. The pinenuts were not too strong but really went well with the fish's flavor. For just a little over 2$ and about 20 minutes of cooking and prep time you kind of need to wonder what is the point of getting this as a restaurant.

Sorry... now picture. I was too hungry to get my camera. Maybe next time.
