Frying the Nuggets
In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the breaded grouper nuggets in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove the nuggets and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
