Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Rinse and Dry

    Rinse the whiting fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season and Marinate

    Season both sides of the fish fillets with salt and black pepper. Drizzle lemon juice over the fillets and let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

Breading

  1. 3

    Prepare Breading Mixture

    In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.

  2. 4

    Prepare Egg Mixture

    In another bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the milk.

  3. 5

    Bread the Fish

    Dip each seasoned fish fillet first into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it in the flour-cornmeal mixture. Ensure each fillet is evenly coated.

Cooking

  1. 6

    Heat Oil

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

  2. 7

    Fry the Fish

    Carefully add the breaded fish fillets to the skillet, cooking them in batches if necessary, for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  3. 8

    Drain Excess Oil

    Once cooked, transfer the fish to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

  4. 9

    Serve

    Serve the fish hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
