Ingredients for Fried Fish Plate

Method

Cooking Directions

1

Prepare the Fish

Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season the fillets with salt, pepper, and paprika.

2

Set Up Breading Station

In one bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In a second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In a third bowl, combine the cornmeal, salt, and pepper.

3

Bread the Fish

Coat each fish fillet first in flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip it in the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat the fillet in the cornmeal mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

4

Heat the Oil

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

5

Fry the Fish

Carefully place the breaded fish fillets in the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish and drain on paper towels.

6

Serve

Serve the fried fish hot with lemon wedges and tartar sauce on the side.
