Fritto Misto Ingredients

Method

Fritto Misto Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Seafood

    Pat the calamari, shrimp, scallops, and white fish dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Coat the Seafood

    Dredge each piece of seafood in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.

  5. 5

    Fry the Seafood

    Carefully add a few pieces of the coated seafood to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Arrange the fried seafood on a platter, garnish with parsley, and serve with lemon wedges.
