Ingredients

The following ingredients have 1 Servings
  • 8 (4oz) cod filets
  • 1 cup plus 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons pepper
  • 1 tablespoon cayenne (optional)
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instruction

  • Rinse filets in cold water; pat dry. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine 3 tbsp flour and filets, one at a time, and toss to coat evenly. In a bowl, beat the egg. Set aside. In a new bowl, combine flour with seasonings; mix. Dip filets in egg, then in flour mixture, one piece at a time, ensuring filets are coated evenly. In a heavy skillet, heat 1 inch of oil. Fry filets over medium heat, working in batches if needed, until fish flakes easily with a fork, 2–3 minutes on each side.
