I know "coat" is also fine! But "dredge " is a proper word to describe cooking process and it's often used in recipes. According to Wikipedia, Dredging is a cooking technique used to coat wet or moist foods with a dry ingredient prior to cooking. Put most simply, dredging involves little more than pulling or rolling the wet food through the dry material to provide an even coating. The technique is particularly common with breaded foods, such as fried fish or chicken cutlets. Anyway, I appreciate all the help! Thank you!

Dredge actually means to remove something, like you can dredge a lake to find something on the ground beneath. I think the word you mean is 'drench'. That means you add a lot of some liquid to something, so that it's fully covered.

I changed the measurements for Americans and trimmed some words. Recipes tend to be concise, often omitting articles that would be required or preferred in other forms of writing. 

And this sounds delicious! What kind of oil do you use?
