Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Sriracha Tartar Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise and Sriracha until well combined. Adjust the spice level to taste and set aside.
Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, and baking powder. Gradually whisk in ice-cold water until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Seafood and Peppers
Dip the shrimp, Mahi-Mahi, and calamari in the batter, allowing the excess to drip off. Fry in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes each. Add the shishito peppers during the last minute of frying.
Drain and Serve
Remove the fried seafood and peppers with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with lemon wedges and Sriracha tartar sauce on the side.
