App Fr Snapper Throats Recipe

Cut snapper throat fillets into 1-inch bite-sized pieces. Pat dry with paper towels.

Whisk lemon juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder in a bowl to create a light marinade.

Toss the fish pieces in the marinade until evenly coated. Let marinate for 15-20 minutes.

In a shallow dish, combine all-purpose flour, cornmeal, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.

Dredge each marinated piece in the flour-cornmeal mixture, pressing lightly to adhere. Shake off excess coating.

Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C).

Fry coated snapper pieces in batches for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.

Transfer fried pieces to a rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.

Arrange fried snapper throat bites on a platter. Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
