   Preheat your oven to 350u00b0 F. Take the fish out of the refrigerator and bring it to room temperature.

   Whisk the egg in a medium bowl. Pour the cracker crumbs into a second medium bowl.

4. 4

   Heat the bacon fat in the skillet on medium heat until hot but not smoking.

   Dip each piece of fish into the egg and then into the cracker crumbs, coating it thoroughly. Place the coated fish into the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.

6. 6

   Place the skillet with the fish in the oven and bake for 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and let the fish rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve over vegetables, mashed potatoes, polenta, or grains.
