I was listening to the radio and they were advertise'n fish tacos.:eek: So today I came in hungry from fishing. Looked in fridge for something quick. So I get a brainstorm.:rolleyes: I took a soft flour burrito shell put pepper jack cheese and left over fried Crappie fillets on 1/2. Then folded over shell and microwaved for a minute to melt cheese. Either it's pretty good or I was starving.:o
There is also a post on here somewhere about wrapping them in bacon and cooking them in the oven. Not sure where it is but maybe someone will post a link.
Yours probably would work better if you were starving though as it only took a minute.
Hard to beat a leftover slab sandwich! Lil cheese and whatever you like.
If they happen to be baked or lightly battered try layering them with rice, and monterey jack cheese and a can of cream of chicken soup in a caserole dish. Top it with jack cheese and parmesian. It only needs to bake for about a half hour at most.
LEFTOVER Crappie fillets? :confused:
I know TN, that's what I thought too... ;^)
We always make more than necessary for one meal so we can enjoy them later that day or for the next days meal in a different recipe.
I usually intentionally make more than I know we will eat so that there will be left overs to snack on. Otherwise you got to go buy taterchips or something. lol
I like to break them up in a Salad. They are great that way. Just make up a Salad with tomato's, lettuce, Bacon Bit's some Avocado and break the filltes up on it and add you favorite Dressing. YUM :) Ron
I make lots of extra as well and then eat them cold. I love cold fried fish!
DITTO! DITTO! DITTO! :D We just leave 'em in a pan covered with a paper towel on the back of the stove and they dont last long. Nothing at all wrong with just plain cold fried fillets. YUM!! Now I gotta go to the freezer and set a mess out for supper.Quote:

Leftovers??!! Well, sometimes. I like em on a samich. A little tarter sauce, hot sauce, pickles and BAM! What samich!!
Left over what??????? I normally try my best to make sure there's no fish left before I leave the table, but if they are some left I do like gabowman. I wrap them up in a paper towel and have a little snack later on. :)
Iam the king of cold crappie,hehe
I`ll fry up a bunch and let everyone else eat then throw the rest in the micro to cool.. then about ten at night I`ll be itchin for my McCrappie sammich ! I`ll use the leftover homemade tartesauce (diced sweet pickls, some pickljuice and salt pepper and MIRACLE WHIP) and a slice of cheese. mmmmmmmmmmmm
Eat Um!!! Nothine Better Than Cold Crappie For Breakfast The Next Mornin:d :d
crumble'em up, stir'em in with cold grits, season, make into patties, and brown'em in a skillet. Make you slap somebody.:) :)
Try bacon bits crumbled filets and cream cheese in a omlette. Great way to start the day!

what leftovers????? The more I make the more I eat man I love crappie!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I fry them again (just enough to completely heat them) and eat them. I learned this from a girl who worked at a local sea food restraunt. They would have all you could eat and when you wanted some more they would quickly bring some more to youir table. I asked her how they cooked it so quickly and she confided to me that they just reheated by re-frying. :cool:
They make great samiches!! With Miracle Whip, sharp cheddar cheese and into the microwave for about 30 sec.
usually aren't any leftovers here either lol. 5 kids + 2 adults if any left over wont last over 1-2 hrs later like they do with frog legs.
No one mentioned what I believe to be the best way to heat up the left overs.
Put the fillets on a broiler pan or metal pan and place under the broiler until the fish shows the oil on the fillet starting to bubble real good. They will be as near to the original as is possible.
Microwaving fish makes them tough and not crisp, and re-frying soaks up too much oil.

Left over Crappie is intentional. To get to eat them they must be hidden in refrig.
Unwrap tinfoil quickly, look around to see if coast is clear. Rewrap, then nonchantly ease out the door and eat and grin.
