Fish Bites

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Cut the fresh gulf fish fillets into bite-sized pieces. Pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs mixed with milk, and a mixture of cornmeal and Shack seasoning.

  3. 3

    Bread the Fish

    First, coat each fish piece in flour, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally coat with the cornmeal mixture.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

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

  5. 5

    Fry the Fish Bites

    Carefully add the breaded fish pieces to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fish bites from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with house-made tartar sauce.
