Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound tilapia fillets, rinsed and patted dry
1 egg
⅓ cup milk
½ cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs (such as Progresso®)
2 teaspoons roasted onion flakes
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon blackened seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
2 pinches crushed red pepper flakes
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
¼ teaspoon freshly ground sea salt, or to taste
1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons butter

Steps:

  • Beat the egg with milk in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, roasted onion flakes, garlic, blackened seasoning, crushed red pepper flakes, black pepper, and sea salt.
  • Dip a tilapia fillet into the egg mixture, then press gently into the crumb mixture on both sides; set the coated fillet onto a plate. Repeat with remaining fillets; refrigerate the coated fillets for about 15 minutes to help set the crumbs.
  • Heat the olive oil and butter in a cast-iron frying pan over medium heat. Lay the fillets into the skillet, and pan-fry until golden brown on each side, about 3 minutes per side. The fish should be opaque and flaky underneath the coating. Remove and drain fillets on paper towels.

KISS (KEEPING IT SUPER SIMPLE) FRIED FISH



Kiss (Keeping It Super Simple) Fried Fish image

Beer, fish, pancake batter - that's all you need! Dip, fry, eat - that's all you do! Great with salads or chips and mushy peas! We make a bit of "tartar sauce" by chopping up gherkins quite finely and mixing it into some mayo with a tad of lemon and hot mustard to taste but the kids like a mayo and ketchup mix...experiment! It's fun!

Time 20m

Yield 6 large pieces, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

3/4 cup beer (brand of your choice)
1 cup pancake mix (brand of your choice)
3 large fish fillets, cut into 6 pieces (basa works well)

Steps:

  • set fryer to 160 degrees celsius.
  • rinse fillets under cold water & pat dry.
  • sprinkle 1/4 cup of the dry pancake mix on a platter.
  • fold the remaining pancake mix with the beer in a shallow bowl.
  • dredge the fish in the dry pancake mix.
  • dip the dredged fish into the beer batter.
  • gently place the battered fish into the hot oil ensuring that there is plenty of space between pieces - two or three pieces at a time is best.

Tips for Frying Fish Perfectly:

  • Choose the right fish: Not all fish are suitable for frying. Some, like cod, halibut, and tilapia, are flaky and delicate, while others, like tuna and salmon, are more dense and oily. The best fish for frying are those that are firm-fleshed and have a mild flavor.
  • Use a good quality oil: The type of oil you use can make a big difference in the taste and texture of your fried fish. Some good options include vegetable oil, canola oil, and peanut oil. Avoid using olive oil, as it has a low smoke point and can burn easily.
  • Season the fish properly: Before you fry the fish, season it with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish and make it more delicious.
  • Coat the fish in flour: Coating the fish in flour before frying helps to create a crispy crust and prevents the fish from sticking to the pan. You can use all-purpose flour, bread crumbs, or cornmeal for coating.
  • Fry the fish at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for frying fish is between 350°F and 375°F. If the oil is too hot, the fish will cook too quickly and may burn. If the oil is too cold, the fish will absorb too much oil and become greasy.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When frying fish, it's important not to overcrowd the pan. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the fish will not cook evenly. Fry the fish in batches if necessary.
  • Drain the fish on paper towels: After frying the fish, drain it on paper towels to remove any excess oil. This will help to make the fish crispy and delicious.

Conclusion:

Frying fish is a delicious and easy way to cook this versatile protein. By following these tips, you can fry fish that is crispy, flaky, and flavorful. Experiment with different types of fish, seasonings, and coatings to find your favorite fried fish recipe.
