Serves:  4

1  lb  Firm White Fish, about 3/4-inch thick--Cod, Haddock, Catfish, Bass

1/4  Cup  Cornmeal
1/4  Cup  Dry Bread Crumbs
1/4  teaspoon  Dried Dill Weed
1/2  teaspoon  Paprika
1/4  teaspoon  Old Bay Seasoning
1/8  teaspoon Black Pepper
1/4  Cup  Milk
3  Tablespoons  Butter, melted

Move oven rack to position slightly above middle of oven.  Heat oven to 500*.

Cut Fish into 2 x 2-1/2-inch pieces.  Mix Cornmeal, Bread Crumbs, Dill, Paprika, Old Bay Seasoning and Pepper in a shallow dish (a pie plate works great).  Dip Fish in Milk, then coat with the Cornmeal mixture.
