How to Make Cajun Fish Croquette
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup cornmeal, 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
- In another shallow bowl, whisk together ½ cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- Dip each fish fillet (about 1 pound total) into the mayonnaise mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, dredge in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Flip to coat both sides evenly.
- Place the coated fish fillets on a greased baking sheet.
- Bake for 10 minutes, or until the croquettes are lightly golden.
- Switch to the broiler and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the croquettes are crispy and golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Serve immediately with the remaining mayonnaise mixture for dipping.
