Ingredients:
2 lbs of white fish( cod, snapper,swai,tilapia)
lemon pepper (any brand)
1 pkg of Louisiana fish fry
1 1/2 cups of canola oil
Spread out your fish on a cutting board and season with the lemon pepper so that all the fish has and even amount of season.
In a bowl pour in half of the fish fry(Tip: to get a crispier texture on the fish add 1/3 cup of corn meal to the fish fry mix)
Place the seasoned fish into the fry mix and evenly coat on both sides.
In a pan heat the Canola oil (Tip: to make sure the oil is hot enough stick a wooden spoon in it, if oil surrounding the spoon starts to bubble up it's ready)
When the oil is ready add as many fish that will fit the pan and start frying
when the fish starts to turn golden brown on bottom which only takes about 3 minutes, flip the fish over so the other side can finish cooking
Once the fish is firm and golden brown on both sides they are ready to be taken out of the oil
Set aside to eliminate the excess oil
Serve with French fries, white rice, a sandwich or a taco!(Tip: if you have a shortage of ketchup look below for a easy emergency ketchup recipe.)
