fride fish recipe
Ingredients:
4 fish fillets (cod, tilapia, or any white fish)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp chili powder (optional, for heat)
Oil for frying (vegetable, canola, or peanut oil)
Instructions:
Prep the Fish:
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels.
Season them lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
Set Up Breading Station:
Place flour in one shallow bowl.
Beat the eggs in a second shallow bowl.
In a third bowl, mix breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, chili powder (if using), salt, and pepper.
Bread the Fish:
Coat each fillet in flour, shaking off the excess.
Dip the fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully coated.
Press the fish into the breadcrumb mixture, making sure it’s evenly covered.
Heat the Oil:
In a large skillet or deep pan, heat about 1/2 inch of oil over medium heat.
Test the oil by dropping a small piece of breadcrumb into it—if it sizzles, it’s ready.
Fry the Fish:
Gently place the fish fillets into the hot oil.
Fry for 3-4 minutes per side (depending on thickness), until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve:
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces, like tartar sauce or a creamy herb dip.
Pair it with a side of coleslaw, fries, or a fresh green salad.
