| Ingredients: | 2 C vegetable oil 2 lb fish fillets (tilapia) 1.5 C flour in zip-loc 2 C dry pancake mix 2 C club soda (16oz bottle) 1 Tbsp onion powder 1 Tbsp Lowry's seasoned salt tartar sauce |
| Notes: | Can use beer instead of soda. |
| Instructions: | Cut fish into 2-inch chunks. Pour oil into skillet or dutch oven to at least 1/2 inch deep. Heat to about 400 degrees for Frying. Drop fish pieces into flour and shake. Place floured pieces on paper towel to dry for 4-5 minutes. In bowl or large zip-loc, combine pancake mix, soda, onion powder, and seasoned salt. Batter should be a thinner than molasses - add soda until it is thin enough to pour. Dip fish pieces into batter, let excess drip off, then carefully place into oil. Fry about 3 minutes and flip for 3 more minutes. Fish should be brown on all sides. Cool on paper towel. Check center of first pieces for doneness - white rather than translucent. Serve with tartar sauce, and french fries made in another dutch oven. Serves 6-8. |
