Crispy Beer-Battered Fish Fillets
Ingredients
  • 2 quarts vegetable oil for frying
  • 8 (4 ounce) fillets cod
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons paprika
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer, or as needed
Instructions
1
Collect and prepare all necessary components for the dish.
2
Preheat a deep fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Clean and dry cod fillets thoroughly, then sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
3
In a large container, combine flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg and beer until well blended to form a smooth batter.
4
Dip each cod fillet into the batter, ensuring it is evenly coated. Gently place one fillet at a time into the hot oil, taking care not to splash or spill.
5
Fry multiple fillets simultaneously, flipping them once until they are cooked through and golden brown, approximately 2 minutes per side.
6
Transfer the fried cod fillets to paper towels to drain excess oil. Continue this process for any remaining fillets before serving the dish warm and hot.
