Southern Crispy Pan Fried Fish Without Eggs

Southern Crispy Pan Fried Fish Without Eggs

Serves: 4

Ingredients

* 4 mahi mahi fish fillets

* 3/4 cup cornmeal

* 1/2 cup all purpose flour

* Preferred seasonings (I use seasoned salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and paprika.)

* Old Bay seasoning

* Vegetable Oil

Directions

1. Pour 1/4 ” to 1/2″ of vegetable oil into a skillet and heat to 350°F on medium heat.

2. Drain the fish fillets after they have been cut in half and dipped in water.

3. Lightly season the fish on both sides with your preferred seasonings.

4. In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the cornmeal and flour together. Place each piece of fish in the mixture – evenly coating by turning the fish several times.

5. Sprinkle the coated fish with Old Bay seasoning.

5. Work in batches. Fry the fish (four pieces at a time) until the fish is a light golden brown. When done, the fish should flake easily with a fork.

6. Drain the excess oil from the fried fish with paper towels.
