Season with pepper as desired. Pat fish dry. Lightly season filets with salt and pepper. Dredge both sides of seasoned filets in seasoned corn flour. Set aside on a dry plate. Place heavy skillet over medium-high heat and add oil. Swirl to coat pan. Heat oil until it just begins to smoke. Be sure to use your exhaust fan. Using tongs, add filets to hot oil.
