Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Clam Strips

    In a medium bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder together.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined. Gradually add the flour mixture to the egg mixture until smooth.

  3. 3

    Coat the Clam Strips

    Dip each clam strip into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Clam Strips

    Carefully add the coated clam strips to the hot oil in batches, frying for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the fried clam strips.
