CRISPY OVEN-FRIED COD



Crispy Oven-Fried Cod image

Categories     Fish     Fry     Winter     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
4 (6-oz) pieces center-cut cod or scrod fillet (3/4 inch thick)
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
Accompaniment: lemon wedges and tartar sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500°F.
  • Combine bread crumbs, cornmeal, salt, and cayenne in a large sealable plastic bag and shake to mix.
  • Season fish with salt and pepper on both sides and, working with 1 piece at a time, put fish in bag and shake to coat well with crumbs. Dip fish in eggs, then shake in crumbs again to coat. Transfer fish to a plate.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy ovenproof skillet (preferably cast-iron) over high heat until hot but not smoking, then fry fish until undersides are golden brown, about 1 minute. Turn over, add remaining 3 tablespoons oil, and cook 1 minute more. Put skillet in upper third of oven and bake until fish is just cooked through, about 5 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cod fillets: Fresh cod fillets will yield the best results. If using frozen fillets, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Season the cod fillets well: Before frying, season the cod fillets with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Use a light batter: A light batter will allow the cod fillets to cook evenly without becoming too heavy or greasy. A simple batter made with flour, eggs, and milk is a good option.
  • Fry the cod fillets at a high temperature: Frying the cod fillets at a high temperature will help to create a crispy crust. The ideal temperature for frying is between 350°F and 375°F.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When frying the cod fillets, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Drain the cod fillets on paper towels: After frying, drain the cod fillets on paper towels to remove any excess grease.

Conclusion:

Crispy deep-fried cod fish is a delicious and easy-to-make dish. By following these tips, you can ensure that your cod fillets turn out perfectly crispy and flavorful. Serve with your favorite sides, such as tartar sauce, coleslaw, or french fries, for a complete meal.
