Ingredients
Fried Flounder Ingredients
Frying Instructions
1. Marinate the Fish
In a large bowl, soak the flounder fillets in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes to tenderize and flavor the fish.
2. Prepare the Coating
In another bowl, mix together the flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
3. Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
4. Coat the Fillets
Remove the flounder fillets from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, and dredge each fillet in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating.
5. Fry the Fish
Carefully place the coated fillets in the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
6. Drain and Serve
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried fillets to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of sides.
