Beat egg and milk together. Place in frying pan that has been preheated with enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Cook on medium heat until golden brown, then turn. Place fish in baking dish, fillet side up. Pour clam chowder over fillets, cover and bake.
Fish is done when it begins to flake easily with a fork.
This recipe also works well using a standard microwave oven. Dip fillets in melted butter and then season with the mixture. Drop into hot skillet and cook 2-3 minutes on each side or until blackened. If using juice and white pepper, coat fish by dipping into shallow bowl of lemon juice and sprinkling pepper. If using pre-mixed lemon pepper, sprinkle to taste.
