Chicken Fried Grouper Ingredients

Method

Directions for Chicken Fried Grouper

  1. 1

    Marinate the Grouper

    In a bowl, soak the grouper fillets in buttermilk for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Dredging Station

    In one bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs.

  3. 3

    Dredge the Fish

    Remove the grouper from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dip each piece first into the egg mixture, then into the flour mixture, coating well.

  4. 4

    Fry the Grouper

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the dredged grouper fillets and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
