Beer Battered Walleye
A great way to cook any fish!
Servings: 3 people
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 lb fish I used Walleye; deboned, skinned, fileted
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
- 1/2 C all purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper more or less depending on spice tolerance
- 1/2 T garlic powder
- 1/2 T paprika
- 1 tsp Lawry's seasoned salt
- 3/4 C beer*
- 1 large egg
- vegetable or canola oil enough for frying
Instructions
- Heat oil to 375°F. I did ~2 inches of oil in a deep pan.
- Pat fish dry. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine flour, cayenne, garlic powder, paprika, and Lawry's in a shallow dish, such as a pie dish.
- Add egg and beer and mix well.
- Fry the fish. Do not overcrowd the pan. I cooked 2 at a time.
- Cook until golden brown ~3 minutes. Make sure the oil stays up to temp or your fish batter will cook soggy. Enjoy!
Notes
*I used Heineken 0.0. If you are opposed to beer or NA beer, you can use seltzer water. We are mainly just needing the carbonation here.
